The fact its almost impossible to do with a distribution kernel. eg
you can't make it work with Fedora (see the Fedora bugs assigned to
you)

If pata_marvell should be driving these chips please remove the entries
from the ahci.c driver as I asked before.

If ahci.c should be driving them then we need the documentation for
whatever extension they use driving the ports via AHCI. Clearly there is
one as its possible under Windows.

If you have a degree in initrd-foo
