I thought it was BCM7425, but you probably have the resources to check
better than I do.
There were also some small (probably mostly undocumented) bugfixes at
some point. I think the early cores actually had problems with the
upstream libahci. You might look at AHCI_HFLAG_DELAY_ENGINE for that, if
you care.
You might also notice that the "strict-ahci" stuff we were using got
dropped:

ahci_platform: Drop support for ahci-strict platform device type
But that's less relevant, now that there's a proper brcmstb driver.
