    libata: convert drivers with combined SATA/PATA ports to new init model · eca25dca
    Tejun Heo authored
    Convert sata_via and sata_promise to new init model.  Both controllers
    can have combined configuration (SATA + PATA) and used twisted
    initialization method (modifying port in ->port_start) to overcome
    probe_ent limitations.
    
    This patch converts both drivers to new init model in which such
    configuration is natively supported.
    
    * promise: Combined pata port now uses separate port_info entry right
      after the sata counterpart entry.
    
    * promise: Controller configuration is discerned using ap->flags.
      This simplifies init path and makes it look more like other LLDs.
    
    * via: Both SATA and PATA ports in vt6421 are represented in their
      own port_info structure.
    
    Tested on PDC20375 (SATA150 TX2plus) [105a:3375] and PDC40775 (SATA
    300 TX2plus) [105a:3d73].  Couldn't test via cuz my c3 won't boot the
    current kernel.
