Hi:
Pass port info from the platform data is a good idea.
About the codes duplication in the board level, I think that we can
re-use the default  port info on most boards, when the ata_port_info
is null in the platform data struct.
We can leave the ahci_platform.c without any modifications in this way.

How do you guys think about?

Best Regard
Richard Zhu
