Re: [PATCH 09/14] ata: Use 32bit DMA in AHCI for Loongson 3.

[huacai chen <chenhuacai@gmail.com>]

Do you means it is a better idea to modify "enum board_ids" and add a
new board id such as board_ahci_sb700_loongson, and then add a new
entry in ahci_port_info[]?
If so, I think there is a problem: the pci id of our AHCI controller
is 1002:4390, if I add board_ahci_sb700_loongson, then I should also
add
{ PCI_VDEVICE(ATI, 0x4390), board_ahci_sb700_loongson },
in ahci_pci_tbl[], but ahci_pci_tbl[] already has a line
{ PCI_VDEVICE(ATI, 0x4390), board_ahci_sb700 },
Then which entry will match the device?
