Re: [PATCH 04/12] ahci: make NO_NCQ handling more consistent

ahci_save_initial_config() is responsible for reading, screening the
host CAP register and storing the modified result into hpriv->cap for
the rest of the driver.  Move ATA_FLAG_NO_NCQ handling into
ahci_save_initial_config().  It's more consistent this way and the
rest of the driver can always refer to hpriv->cap to determine
configured capability.

ACK, even though I dislike the manipulation of cap.

Your patch did not start this manipulation, as illustrated by AHCI_FLAG_32BIT_ONLY handling, but it is nonetheless a loss of information we may later come to regret. I predict the creation of 'original_cap' sometime in the distant future :)
