+This binding describes a SATA device.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible         : Must be "st,ahci"
Is there not a more specific name? This is awfully generic.
There isn't one. ST only have one AHCI driver. The driver is named as
generically.
If it is this generic, can't you use the completely generic
ahci-platform driver and add a "generic-ahci" compatible string
to that?
It pretty much does. The only 'special' functionality we handle in
the driver are resets and configuring the OOB. However, both are
required.
