In the long term, have one host_set for both legacy ports
instead of two host_sets for both legacy ports can fix the problem.

A patch was submitted by Unicorn, but it looks not good/elegant enough. :(
It will be nice if you have plan for furthur legacy two host_sets case fixes...

Hello, Albert.

Yeap, this host_set->next thing is a temporary solution and we need to handle legacy ports in one host_set. I've seen Unicorn's patches. I agree that those are in the right direction but we seem to need more clean up in driver initialization code. I'll look into it once the next iteration of PMP patches are finished.

Thanks.
