When working on another SATA driver that uses libahci_platform, I noticed an error in this driver; it tries to the the driver data for its device, while libata also thinks it can set the driver data. See:
ahci_platform_init_host() -> ata_host_alloc_pinfo() -> ata_host_alloc() -> dev_set_drvdata()
So instead of sticking the IP-specific platform data into drvdata, let's use the plat_data variable that is reserved for this use.

This looks like it could have ramifications on suspend/resume support, and hot device removal (e.g., sysfs unbind), so it might qualify as -stable, if someone can test it
