So, remove it. Tested on IBM S822LC with current Linux 5.17-rc1:

Currently, without this patch (with 200 ms delay), device probe for ata1
takes 485 ms:

Applied to for-5.18 with commit title and message changes. The title is now:

ata: ahci: Add support for Marvell 88SE9235 adapter

Since it is exactly what this patch is doing by adding a PCI ID.

Thank you for applying the patch. I saw the summary/title change also 
with the other patch. I am sorry, but I totally disagree. Reading that 
summary/title in `git log --oneline`, it’s not clear at all, what the 
patch does, and the full description or diff has to be read. “Add 
support” for me means, that it was unsupported before, which is not true 
at all as the defaults were used.

The comments about the 200ms debounce delay not being needed is kept as
a description of how this new adapter support is defined, using the
board_ahci_no_debounce_delay board definition.


Kind regards,

Paul
