[PATCH 4.3 167/200] libata: disable forced PORTS_IMPL for >= AHCI 1.3

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Feb 14 2016 - 18:49:15 EST


4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 566d1827df2ef0cbe921d3d6946ac3007b1a6938 upstream.

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 >= AHCI 1.3.
