Not on Denverton. I have seen AHCI reset issues on Avoton/Rangeley, but
I'd have to go digging at this point to know for sure if they were fixed
solely by the ahci_avn_hardreset() workaround, or that in combination
with the existing PCS workaround.
I found this not because of failure I saw in Linux, but because I was
using the Linux driver as reference while debugging the u-boot AHCI
driver. When I couldn't find config space offset 0x92 defined in the
Denverton EDS I went digging, and that's where the patch comes from.
I wasn't quickly able to find what chipset the PCS workaround was added
for. If it's for an obsolete chipset then dropping this entirely would
be cleaner.
Does anyone know the background of the original PCS workaround?
