Merge branch 'for-4.16-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata
Pull libata fixes from Tejun Heo: "I sat on them too long and it's quite a few this late, but nothing has a wide blast area. The changes are... - Fix corner cases in SG command handling. - Recent introduction of default powersaving mode config option exposed several devices with broken powersaving behaviors. A number of patches to update the blacklist accordingly. - Fix a kernel panic on SAS hotplug. - Other misc and device specific updates" * 'for-4.16-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata: libata: Modify quirks for MX100 to limit NCQ_TRIM quirk to MU01 version libata: Make Crucial BX100 500GB LPM quirk apply to all firmware versions libata: Apply NOLPM quirk to Crucial M500 480 and 960GB SSDs libata: Enable queued TRIM for Samsung SSD 860 PCI: Add function 1 DMA alias quirk for Highpoint RocketRAID 644L ahci: Add PCI-id for the Highpoint Rocketraid 644L card ata: do not schedule hot plug if it is a sas host libata: disable LPM for Crucial BX100 SSD 500GB drive libata: Apply NOLPM quirk to Crucial MX100 512GB SSDs libata: update documentation for sysfs interfaces ata: sata_rcar: Remove unused variable in sata_rcar_init_controller() libata: transport: cleanup documentation of sysfs interface sata_rcar: Reset SATA PHY when Salvator-X board resumes libata: don't try to pass through NCQ commands to non-NCQ devices libata: remove WARN() for DMA or PIO command without data libata: fix length validation of ATAPI-relayed SCSI commands ata: libahci: fix comment indentation ahci: Add check for device presence (PCIe hot unplug) in ahci_stop_engine() libata: Fix compile warning with ATA_DEBUG enabled

+ - A previously set timeout can be cancelled and disk can resume
+ normal operation immediately by specifying a timeout of 0.
+ - Some hard drives only comply with an earlier version of the
+ ATA standard, but support the unload feature nonetheless.
+ There is no safe way Linux can detect these devices, so this
+ is not enabled by default. If it is known that your device
+ does support the unload feature, then you can tell the kernel
+ to enable it by writing -1. It can be disabled again by
+ writing -2.

+Description:
+ (RW) This parameter allows the user to read and set the link

+
+ There are four possible options:
+
+ min_power: Tell the controller to try to make the link use the
+ least possible power when possible. This may sacrifice some
+ performance due to increased latency when coming out of lower
+ power states.
+
+ max_performance: Generally, this means no power management.
+ Tell the controller to have performance be a priority over power
+ management.
+
+ medium_power: Tell the controller to enter a lower power state
+ when possible, but do not enter the lowest power state, thus
+ improving latency over min_power setting.
+
+ med_power_with_dipm: Identical to the existing medium_power
+ setting except that it enables dipm (device initiated power
+ management) on top, which makes it match the Windows IRST (Intel
+ Rapid Storage Technology) driver settings. This setting is also
+ close to min_power, except that:
+ a) It does not use host-initiated slumber mode, but it does
+ allow device-initiated slumber
+ b) It does not enable low power device sleep mode (DevSlp).
