The use of the AHCI_HFLAG_NO_PMP flag is something which we inherited from
the Allwinner android kernel sources, and I've always wanted to test if this
is really necessary.
So recently I've bought a sata port multiplexer, and I've given this a test
spin on both A10 and A20 devices, and it seems to work fine:
[ 2.154456] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
[ 2.161092] ata1.15: Port Multiplier 1.2, 0x197b:0x0325 r0, 5 ports, feat 0x5/0xf
[ 2.175511] ata1.00: hard resetting link
[ 2.524929] ata1.00: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 320)
[ 2.531430] ata1.01: hard resetting link
[ 2.974465] ata1.01: link resume succeeded after 1 retries
[ 3.094932] ata1.01: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
[ 3.101431] ata1.02: hard resetting link
[ 4.174466] ata1.02: failed to resume link (SControl 0)
[ 4.180065] ata1.02: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
(and the same for links 3 and 4)
Once the NO_PMP flag is removed it correctly sees the 2 disks which I've
attached, and I can mount and use them just fine.
Unfortunately when I then directly attached a disk to the sata port on the
sunxi SoC, and booted a kernel without the AHCI_HFLAG_NO_PMP flag, it would
not recognize that disk.
It turns out that the sata controller in the sunxi SoCs fails to handle
soft-resets issued to directly attached disks, and when pmp support is
enabled the kernel will always issue a soft-reset.
So add a module parameter to enable pmp usage, and default this to off, so
that directly attached disks keep working normally.

This patch moves force_port_map and mask_port_map into the
ahci_host_priv structure. This allows to modify them into the AHCI
framework. This is needed by the new dt bindings representing ports as
the port_map mask is computed automatically.
Parameters modifying force_port_map, mask_port_map and flags have been
removed from the ahci_platform_init_host() function, and inputs in the
ahci_host_priv structure are now directly filed.

Add a dynamic host_flags argument to make ahci_platform_init_host more flexible,
then remove the AHCI_HFLAGS(...) argument from some driver's ata_port_info,
and pass that in as the new argument.

ahci_sunxi_phy_init is called from the probe and resume code paths, and
sleeping is safe in both, so use msleep instead of mdelay.

This patch adds support for the ahci sata controler found on Allwinner A10
and A20 SoCs to the ahci_platform driver.
Orignally written by Olliver Schinagl using the approach of having a platform
device which probe method creates a new child platform device which gets
driven by ahci_platform.c, as done by ahci_imx.c .
Refactored by Hans de Goede to add most of the non sunxi specific functionality
to ahci_platform.c and use a platform_data pointer from of_device_id for the
sunxi specific bits.
