It seems reasonable. We actually have some platforms that require PCI buses to be probed before we know what devices are in the system, and some of these are important. For example, if your network controller is on PCI then U-Boot will not know about it (unless you have it in the device tree) until PCI is probed. I am wondering whether we should add a uclass flag that indicates that uclass members should be automatically probed on start-up? It would not be set for SATA, but would be for PCI. >> >> >>> Also convert the SATA first device scan to a walk through >>> all availabel SATA devices. >> >> >> This should be done in a separate patch.
