Hello, Linus.
This is quite late but SCT Write Same support added during this cycle
is broken subtly but seriously and it'd be best to disable it before
v4.9 gets released.
This pull request contains two commits - one low impact sata_mv fix
and the mentioned disabling of SCT Write Same.
Thanks.
The following changes since commit 6929ef385e09c0065b87fda3e7b872a5070ac783:
