The patch titled
     PNP: disable Supermicro H8DCE motherboard resources that overlap SATA BARs
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     pnp-disable-supermicro-h8dce-motherboard-resources-that-overlap-sata-bars.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: PNP: disable Supermicro H8DCE motherboard resources that overlap SATA BARs
From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@xxxxxx>

Some Supermicro BIOSes describe a SATA PCI BAR as a motherboard resource. 
The PNP system driver claims motherboard resources, and this prevents the
sata_nv driver from requesting it later.

This patch disables the PNP0C01/PNP0C02 resources so they won't be claimed
by the PNP system driver, so they'll available for sata_nv.

This fixes the bugs below, where sata_nv detects only two out of four SATA
drives.  The signature includes dmesg lines similar to these:

  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefc000-0xdfefcfff has been reserved
  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefd000-0xdfefd3ff has been reserved
  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefe000-0xdfefe3ff has been reserved

  PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefd000 for device 0000:80:07.0
  sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:07.0 failed with error -16
  PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefe000 for device 0000:80:08.0
  sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:08.0 failed with error -16
