[PATCH][v1] driver/FSL SATA:Fix wrong Device Error Register usage

From: Prabhakar Kushwaha <hidden>

When a single device error is detected, the device under the error is indicated
by the error bit set in the DER. There is a one to one mapping between register
bit and devices on Port multiplier(PMP) i.e. bit 0 represents PMP device 0 and
bit 1 represents PMP device 1 etc.

Current implementation treats Device error register value as device number not
set of bits representing multiple device on PMP. It is changed to consider bit
level.
No need to check for each set bit as all command is going to be aborted.

The patch changes the code to:
quoted hunk
 		if (ap->nr_pmp_links) {
+			int dev_num;
 			dereg =3D ioread32(hcr_base + DE);
...
quoted hunk
+			dev_num =3D ffs(dereg)-1;
+			if (dev_num < ap->nr_pmp_links) {
+				link =3D &ap->pmp_link[dev_num];
On the off chance that no bits are set in 'DE' this
code depends on nr_pmp_links being unsigned (since
dev_num becomes -1.

Changing 'dev_num' to 'unsigned int' would be better.
