Ok, will change.

In my original patch:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.ppc.embedded/58710

I used "fsl,sata-max-gen".  I thought Jeff disliked it, so I changed
it be more generic -- but maybe I misread his complaint.  (And while
his opinions are still respected, new maintainers might have different
tastes.)

I think my logic was that there exist "sata_spd_limit" and related
functions in the ata core, so I should mirror that in the dev tree.
No guarantees, though -- it's been a while since I wrote that code.

linux-scsi, or linux-ide?  My other recent change to sata_fsl went
through the latter.

Thanks for the review / comments.  Let me know how you'd like to
proceed on the above points, and I can resubmit (as a proper patch for
easier tracking).

Best regards,
