No problem. I've only recently picked up on this issue again myself.

Correct.

Well, the attached patch works for me on my QNAP TS-109. It's based on an
earlier patch proposed by Saeed Bishara to unconditionally enable blink
mode for the led for SOC.
The attached patch adds a quirk for SOC that enables the blink mode as
needed when there's at least one port on a host controller for which NCQ
is enabled.
In the blink mode the led is not as responsive as when NCQ is disabled,
but at least it does show when there is I/O. If I disable NCQ by setting
queue_depth to 1, blink mode is disabled and the led behaves as with
pre-2.6.26 kernels.
I've done my best to make the implementation as cheap as possible.
One question I have is whether _all_ SOCs need this quirk or if we should
test for a model or revision. Is there model/revision info available for SOC?
Cheers,
FJP

Subject: sata-mv: enable HDD led blinking when NCQ is active for SOC
For some Marvell chips the HDD led does not blink when there is
disk I/O if NCQ is enabled. Add a quirk that enables blink mode for
the led when NCQ is used on any of the ports of a host controller.
Currently the quirk is only enabled for SOC, but it can be extended
to other chip models.
The code to enable the blink mode is based on an earlier patch
proposed by Saeed Bishara.
