does this apply to SATA disks?

what's the status of support for 137GB+ SATA disks? it required libata5 patches from Jeff Garzik before (as of 2.4.21-ac4). I see some SATA and ata related patches but I can't tell whether those are (equivalent of) libata5. I'd appreciate some status update (of course a pointer to where/how to find it would be appreciated too)

TIA
