Though, mind you.. as soon as your rework *does* hit upstream,
I'll happily submit further sata_mv patches to take full advantage.
The less custom code in sata_mv in the end, the happier I'll be.
That's why there's a comment there right now reminding me of it.
Yeap, I fully agree. Also, the said change will probably go into 2.6.26
too. It's unfortunate that your sata_mv work overlaps too much with
recent API overhauls. I don't know how Jeff will merge stuff but
merging sata_mv changes first is fine by me. I'll update API changes
accordingly and run it by you.

Mmm.. I still need a way to handle access to the port-multiplier registers.
We never did resolve that one fully on the earlier pass.
It would be great if Jeff could just merge the API stuff now,
so LLD changes for 2.6.26 could then build on top of the updated API.
Doing it all at the final-minute merge window just doesn't leave
me enough real-time to go through the Marvell review processes.
Cheers
