Hello, This patch series fixes a SATA disk hotplug issue for the Armada 370/XP SoCs: once a disk is removed from a SATA port, then the re-plug events are not detected by the sata_mv driver.
As this hotplug issue have been emphasized by 9ae6f740b49f "arm: mach-mvebu: add support for Armada 370 and Armada XP with DT", then this patches should be applied to the -stable kernels 3.6 and onwards. Changes since v1: - Introduces a new compatible string for the SATA IP found in Armada 370/XP SoCs. - Only fix the LP_PHY_CTL register (0x58) if the compatible string "marvell,armada-370-xp-sata" is found in the SATA DT node. - Update compatible string in DT SATA node for Armada 370/XP SoCs. Changes since v2: - Use compatible string "marvell,armada-370-sata" instead of "marvell,armada-370-xp-sata". - Provide more informations for -stable.
