I don't really mind making small changes along with other changes but would appreciate if you can at least mention the change in the changelog.  As it currently stands, I'm not even sure whether the above is an intended change or just something slipped.
[Richard] thanks, No problem, I would add the change-notice in the change-log in next version.

Can you please spellout "hp" to "hotplug" especially for the name visible outside?  It isn't a common abbreviation and it's not like we despearately lose the extra three chars there.
[Richard] Accepted. "hp" would be replaced by "hotplug".

Hmm... I'm not a big fan of this approach as it essentially is an incomplete implementation of SATA device detection.  Wouldn't it be better to override error_handler?  ie. implement
ahci_imx_error_handler() which wraps ahci_error_handler() and do something like the following,

	static bool first_time = true;

	ahci_error_handler(ap);

	if (!first_time || ahci_imx_hotplug)
		return;

	first_time = false;

	ata_for_each_dev(dev, link, ENABLED)
		return;

	DISABLE LINK;
[Richard] Do you means to override the .error_handler of ata_port_operations defined in libahci.c or ahci_platform.c driver?
Ok, let me make a try on it. Thanks again for your review comments.

Thanks.
