[PATCH 2/6] scsi: libsas: Try to retain programmed min linkrate for SATA min pathway unmatch fixing

From: John Garry
Date: Fri Apr 12 2019 - 04:58:37 EST


Currently for fixing the linkrate matching during discovery such that
the linkrate of a SATA PHY does not exceed min pathway to initiator,
we set the SATA PHY programmed min linkrate to the same value as the
programmed max linkrate.

This is unnecessary, and we should be able to keep the same programmed
min linkrate if it is already lower than this new max programmed linkrate.

This patch makes that change.

In effect, this will not make much difference since we generally will
negotiate a linkrate at the programmed max linkrate, and the programmed
min linkrate will have no impact.
