"Glue drivers" is a common name to address the drivers which are used to
pre-initialize the platform-specifics, then normally create a core driver
descriptor/data and finally call some core method (like
ahci_platform_init_host()) to really bind the device in the particular
bus. You can find them in almost all the kernel subsystems. For instance
in case of this patchset the glue-driver is drivers/ata/ahci_dwc.c, while
the main/core part of the driver is implemented in drivers/ata/achi.c,
drivers/ata/libahci.c, drivers/ata/libahci_platform.c, etc.
It's not like I've come up with the term by myself. I've seen it used in a
plenty of the kernel patches and subsystems and will unlikely stop using
it since it determines the particular type of the kernel drivers in a
short and direct manner.

It will be used in the next two patches:
[PATCH 17/21] ata: ahci: Add DWC AHCI SATA controller support
[PATCH 20/21] ata: ahci-dwc: Add Baikal-T1 AHCI SATA interface support
and most likely in the new AHCI/SATA drivers which need to tune the clocks
up in the platform-specific way.
