Hi,

There have been reports in the past of libata core code size
being a problem in migration from deprecated IDE subsystem on
legacy PATA only systems, i.e.:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/db2838b7-4862-785b-3a1d-3bf09811340a@gmail.com/ (local)

This patchset re-organizes libata core code to exclude SATA
specific code from being built for PATA only setups.

The end result is up to 24% (by 23949 bytes, from 101769 bytes to
77820 bytes) smaller libata core code size (as measured for m68k
arch using modified atari_defconfig) on affected setups.

I've tested this patchset using pata_falcon driver under ARAnyM
emulator.
Bart, I'd like to get this into 5.7, can you rebase on current
for-5.7/libata? As you know, I dropped the dprintk series, and it's
now throwing rejects.
Sure, I've just posted v5 (I've rebased it on today's -next and
added Reviewed-by tags from Christoph).

Best regards,
