Currently the ASPEED PCI vendor ID is defined in
drivers/gpu/drm/ast/ast_drv.c, move that to include/linux/pci_ids.h

to follow the format that the other definitions follow.

Thanks a lot. Can you please also move and rename the PCI device ids? [1]

Generally we move things to pci_ids.h only when they are shared
between multiple drivers.  This is mostly to make backports easier.

PCI_VENDOR_ID_ASPEED is (or will be) used in both ast_drv.c and
libata-core.c, so it qualifies.

It doesn't look like PCI_CHIP_AST2000 and PCI_CHIP_AST2100 would
qualify since they're only used in ast_drv.c and ast_main.c, which are
part of the same driver.

Ok, I see. Can I take the patch into DRM trees?

The first time around I got two patches [2].  This time I only got
this patch, but IIUC there are still two patches in play here:

   - This one, which moves PCI_VENDOR_ID_ASPEED to pci_ids.h, and
   - The libata-core one that adds a use in ata_dev_config_ncq()

Those should go together via the same tree.  I supplied my ack to
indicate that I'm not going to merge anything myself, and I expect
whoever merges the libata patch to also merge this one.

If for some reason the libata-core patch doesn't happen, then this
patch shouldn't happen either, because there would no longer be any
sharing between drivers that would justify a pci_ids.h addition.

I can take both patches through the libata tree but there were comments on the
second patch for libata and I have not seen these addressed yet (I did not get a
v2). And in the meantime, it seems that the PCI ID patch was reworked as a
single patch... Not sure what's happening here.

I don't think I've even seen the libata patch. Please take both patches through your tree when they are ready.

Best regards
Thomas
