Let's not duplicate code in AHCI. Initially the common code could live in libata, but let's think about the best place in the kernel for this function to live.


Three copies are my tipping point.  Yeah, but two are good enough for
me too.  Any ideas where this utility should live?

libata-core.c for now. Long term? Tough question. Probably create a new file in lib/ directory, or add it to lib/iomap.c.
