Hi Tejun / Brian, I tested the initial version of this patch (see http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/459422/) on stih410 hardware, however it introduced a NULL ptr dereference, as plat_data isn't set until ahci_platform_init_host() but plat_data was being used before this in the st_ahci_probe_resets and st_ahci_deassert_resets() functions. Also the original patch had a conflict with a patch which Tejun has already taken of mine (see here http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-March/326900.html). So this V2 fixes the conflict, and re-works st_ahci_probe_resets and st_ahci_deassert_resets functions to take struct ahci_host_priv *hpriv as a parameter. Brian - I'm not sure of the correct patch etiquette here. Currently I have taken authorship of the patch and added a "Suggested-by" tag on the V2. Maybe I should have also kept your "Signed-off-by" or done something else? Please let me know if this is OK or if you would like something changed. regards, Peter. Changes since v1: - Rework st_ahci_deassert_resets and st_ahci_probe_resets - Fix conflict with "st_configure_oob must be called after IP is clocked." patch Peter Griffin (1): ata: ahci_st: fixup layering violations / drvdata errors drivers/ata/ahci_st.c | 49 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
