Tejun,

Where can I find your git tree, which includes all the above
patch sets? We're preparing to test SATA hotplug in our lab.

BTW. Is there a way to check whether SATA controller support
hotplug, such as a capability bit in certain register?
Or we have to first enable PHY status changed interrupt, then
hotplug the SATA disk, then to check if the interrupt is triggered,
and PHY RDY status changes?

I read AHCI 1.1 spec, and didn't find such capability bit.

Thanks,
Forrest
