CNS3xxx override the softreset function of ahci_platform ahci_softreset by
cns3xxx_ahci_softreset, which would retry ahci_do_softreset again with pmp=0 if
pmp=15 failed, for the controller has problem receiving D2H Reg FIS of the
different PMP setting of the previous sent H2D Reg FIS.

Following describe the isssue with original ahci_platform driver on
linux-2.6.37-rc3, arm/cns3xxx.

If CONFIG_SATA_PMP is enabled, while not using multiplier and connect the disks
directly to the board, the disk cannot be found due to software reset always

complicated if more SoC-specific code added.
I really prefer the original way.

Is there a reference to the original?
