Apologies for being late but I'm afraid I just found at least one
regression in this release.

I have an external HDD in an USB3 enclosure for the occasional backup. I
turn it on, it gets registered as sdX, I mount it/use it/unmount it and
turn it off, which worked fine with kernels including 3.7.4.
With 3.7.5 the kernel seems no longer notified of the changed device power
status; nothing in dmesg and the device stays in the list of SCSI devices
as e.g. shown by lsscsi. This is repeatable. Turning the device back
on/using it works fine, it's just that I cannot dynamically remove it any
longer.

I cannot run a bisect at the moment, but reading the changelog points
to a few USB and libata related changes. I hope this helps.

thanks
Holger
