Hello,

this patch set adds the SATA support for Armada 370 and Armada XP. Few
changes have been done since the first version by taking in account
the comments received for the first version.

The evaluation boards for Armada 370 and Armada XP come with 2 SATA
ports, and when both are enable the coherent pool for DMA mapping was
too short. It was exactly the same issue that was fixed for Kirkwood
two months ago. So I used the same fix in the first patch. Later when
Kirkwood will be part of mach-mvebu, then this fix will be shared
between the 2 SoCs families.

This patch set is based on 3.7-rc2 and depends one the framework clock
support (the last version was posted last week:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1375701). The git branch
called mvebu-SATA-for-3.8 is also available at
https://github.com/MISL-EBU-System-SW/mainline-public.git.
Hi Gregory

What about the openblocks-ax3?
Well I don't have this hardware, Thomas have. But with this question
I guess this board have (a) SATA port(s).

Moreover openblocks-ax3 is not (yet) in Jason branch so I can't make
a patch applying on a file which doesn't exist on my branch. It could
be a dependency but I try to reduce it as far as I can.

But as soon as this series will be applied, adding SATA support for
openblocks-ax3 should be pretty fast and just a matter of updating
the dts.
