I'm not against this, I've introduced the same for the ehci / uhci platform
driver after all, but this should be documented in Documentation/devicetree,
and please make sure to mention in the docs that the correct way to use this
inside a dts file is:
compatible = "manufacturer,soc-model-ahci", "generic-ahci";
So that we can later add quirks for the specific soc if necessary without
needing to change the dts.

Hans
