From: Tejun Heo Subject: libata: force hardreset if link is in powersave mode References: 381795 Inhibiting link PM mode doesn't bring the link back online if it's already in powersave mode. If SRST is used in these cases, libata EH thinks that the link is offline and fails detection. Force hardreset if link is in powersave mode.
