Promise claims it should have NCQ how to enable ?
If it claims NCQ and 3.0Gbps support, I would guess 205xx

Does this mean, changing :

{ PCI_VDEVICE(PROMISE, 0x3d17), board_20319 },
to
{ PCI_VDEVICE(PROMISE, 0x3d17), board_2057X },

in sata_promise.c would do the trick to activate NCQ of this board?

Does this hurt?
Do I need to do something else to get NCQ working?

Heh, no, a lot more than that... NCQ is not supported at all in the driver. If someone is looking for a project, the docs are now available for them to work on NCQ.
