In some sense, we could say that this is not a regression. According to
what you mean, SATA hotplug has *never* been working on Armada 370/XP.
So technically, it could be seen as a new feature for this platform,
and is therefore not a regression (i.e something that used to work, and
that no longer works). There has been no kernel release for which SATA
hotplug was working for Armada 370/XP.

Best regards,

Thomas
