This can't be something changed between 2.6.24 and 2.6.25-rc9. Can you please double check that?

Good, so it seems later ich's need its SPM fields written or link reset to get out of powersave mode. Inhibiting PM modes via IPM isn't enough, which BTW is sane.
Jeff, this one looks like another rationale for favoring hardreset over softreset && I don't see how we can fix this for 2.6.25. We can try to write to SPM from link_resume() but the field being newly added in SATA 2.5, I don't feel comfortable about it.
Thanks.
