Serge, you seem to be the last person to touch this in
commit 88589772e80c ("ata: libahci: Discard redundant force_port_map
parameter"), where you removed force_port_map, so you are already
familiar with this code.
>From my quick look, it looks like mask_port_map is used to disable one or
more ports from the port_map.
But do you know if there is a reason why platforms that need to do that
can't just change saved_port map directly?
Kind regards,
Niklas
