The AHCI_HFLAGS are a Linux implementation detail, so it would be nice
to have a good justification for each of these being turned into DT
properties.

There is absolutely no reason to mention CAP_* here; the DT should
describe the HW, not Linux internals.

Do these all make sense to be placed in DT?

I worry that for other quirks we may need more flags in future. For that
reason I'd rather figure this out in the driver based on the compatible
string.

For boolean flags please use of_property_read_bool.

Mark.
