From 23262cce529e9f437ce2fa8fe4c2fa5b2b182318 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Niklas Cassel Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2024 20:44:20 +0200 Subject: ata: libata-core: Remove support for decreasing the number of ports Commit f31871951b38 ("libata: separate out ata_host_alloc() and ata_host_register()") added ata_host_alloc(), where the API allowed a LLD to overallocate the number of ports supplied to ata_host_alloc(), as long as the LLD decreased host->n_ports before calling ata_host_register(). However, this functionally has never ever been used by a single LLD. Because of the current API design, the assignment of ap->print_id is deferred until registration time, which is bad, because that means that the ata_port_*() print functions cannot be used by a LLD until after registration time, which means that a LLD is forced to use a print function that is non-port specific, even for a port specific error. Remove the support for decreasing the number of ports, such that it will be possible to assign ap->print_id earlier. Reviewed-by: Damien Le Moal Reviewed-by: Martin K.
