    You mean to base it on this tag without any intervening patches (it 
is now on top of my patch series)? Anyway, I'll rebase my whole series 
on this tag as I have time (I'm now working with the SATA driver to try 
to add to it NCQ support and fixing errors I encounter on the way).

     Yes, correct.
