[smartmontools-support] Adaptec 6805 controller and SATA drives autodetection issue

[Dmitry Lukashonok]

hi all,

There is an issue with auto mode for smartctl tool what it's dealing
with Adaptec 6805 controller and SATA drive connected. however, as
soon as i set proper mode it's working fine. the test below has been
run on FreeBSD 10.3.0.3 - Pilingitam (revision 2898).

is it going to be fixed by chance?
