Ah, this is exactly what I need! The newest docs I had at hand were
ata6.

Then the next question is: can I expect 'newer' ata laptop drives to
support this feature (eg did this feature already exist in drives and is
just being documented in ata7), or do we have to wait for ata7
compliant drives to hit the market?
