[PATCH] libata: disable forced PORTS_IMPL for >= v3.0 controllers

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Jan 14 2016 - 17:37:39 EST


Some early controllers incorrectly reported zero ports in PORTS_IMPL
register and the ahci driver fabricates PORTS_IMPL from the number of
ports in those cases. This hasn't mattered but with the new nvme
controllers there are cases where zero PORTS_IMPL is valid and should
be honored.

Disable the workaround for controllers >= v3.0.
