Hello,

This patch series fixes a SATA disk hotplug issue for the Armada 370/XP
SoCs: once a disk is removed from a SATA port, then the re-plug events
are not detected by the sata_mv driver.

As this hotplug issue have been emphasized by 9ae6f740b49f
"arm: mach-mvebu: add support for Armada 370 and Armada XP with DT",
then this patches should be applied to the -stable kernels 3.6 and
onwards.

Changes since v1:
- Introduces a new compatible string for the SATA IP found in Armada
  370/XP SoCs.
- Only fix the LP_PHY_CTL register (0x58) if the compatible string
  "marvell,armada-370-xp-sata" is found in the SATA DT node.
- Update compatible string in DT SATA node for Armada 370/XP SoCs. 

Changes since v2:
- Use compatible string "marvell,armada-370-sata" instead of
  "marvell,armada-370-xp-sata".
- Provide more informations for -stable.

Thanks,

Simon
