From: Marcin Tomczak <marcin.tomczak@xxxxxxxxx> Failure seen pulling a cable from a x4 port configured in manual port configuration (MPC) mode (MPC mode is set by the the OEM paramaters provided by the platform or isci_firmware.bin). While IO running to devices behind and expander, plugging out the cable from phy is causing IO failures and IO drops on disks and never recover. It happens because during link up/down the phy were being taken out of the port. Fix: during link down the phy is kept in the same logical port.
