Hi,
I have seen your message in LKML archive:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116046278930988&w=2
It's dated 2006.10.10 and states that a patch
to support NCQ on MCP55/MCP61 under Linux
is coming "soon". Now it's five months later
and I would like to ask when will it be supported?
Here is an update for RSDL to version 0.28
