Paolo,
Are you guys still building/shipping for the mx53-qsb for R/master, or
has it been dropped?
If so this builds on Allen's patchset:
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/imx-devel/blob/v3.8.x-imx/patches/imx/0003-imx-Add-IMX53-AHCI-support.patch
BTW, have you talked to Allen to see if he is planning on pushing his
sata patches upstream for v3.9? I haven't seen them posted to lkml...
Regards,
