Sorry I've skipped the last ten review rounds. I'm glad to see the
code has improved so much in the meantime!
I hope the points I'm making here were not already covered in the
many previous review rounds.

Please remove these macros, they don't help anything at all
but make it harder to follow what's going on.
Regarding the actual strings, reflecting them now I think listing 'pcie'
and 'sgmii' is not really helpful to the reader. The difference to
the AHCI driver should not be which device it's sharing its PHY with,
but rather how that looks from software side.
The only difference in your current driver is whether this function
+/* MUX CSR */
+#define SATA_ENET_CONFIG_REG 0x00000000
+#define CFG_SATA_ENET_SELECT_MASK 0x00000001
+static int xgene_ahci_mux_select(struct xgene_ahci_context *ctx)
+{
+ void *mux_csr = ctx->csr_base + SATA_ENET_MUX_OFFSET;
+ u32 val;
+
+ val = readl(mux_csr + SATA_ENET_CONFIG_REG);
+ val &= ~CFG_SATA_ENET_SELECT_MASK;
+ writel(val, mux_csr + SATA_ENET_CONFIG_REG);
+ val = readl(mux_csr + SATA_ENET_CONFIG_REG);
+ return val & CFG_SATA_ENET_SELECT_MASK ? -1 : 0;
+}
gets called. Can you clarify what this register access does?
If it's just setting a index into a mux output, would it make
sense to have an optional DT property containing an integer with
the mux setting you want to set? That way you wouldn't even
have to have two compatible strings but just do
ret = of_property_read_u32(node, "apm,ahci-mux", &mux);
if (!ret)
xgene_ahci_mux_select(ctx, mux);

I still think we should try not to have overlapping memory areas here.
Could you split up the registers into another range in the reg property
to leave the PHY registers out?

This is something we definitely have to fix properly. We are hitting
the problem of dma masks for internal devices on arm32 now, and there
is ongoing discussion about whether a device driver should touch these
at all, or rather rely on the DT core to set up the masks in a generic
way. This device is probably the first DMA master capable device we
have on arm64, other than PCI devices, and we must be careful to get it
right.
In either way, the mask of the device must *not* depend on sizeof(void*):
If the device is capable of doing 64-bit DMA, it should also be able
to do that when running a 32-bit kernel.
Please change this to DMA_BIT_MASK(64) for now, and add a comment
explaining that it is preliminary.
Also, please read the thread named "[PATCH 0/7] of: setup dma
parameters using dma-ranges and dma-coherent" and comment there
about what you think we should do here. I assume we will have to
add "dma-ranges" properties in a number of places to get this
all to work fine any 64-bit SoC. Do you know if you have any
DMA master devices in x-gene that are not 64-bit capable?
