> ahci: start engine only during soft/hard resets
I just spent the better part of last night tracking down the specific
sources of the log entry I get when I disconnect my e-sata drive; once
it disconnects, the port is dead until I reboot; no combination of
anything I've been able to poke at in /sys or elsewhere gets it live
again. This starts with 3.3rc1, and turns out to still work fine in
3.2.1. Any chance it's related?
3.3rc5, immediately after the unplug:

plug it back in, and nothing happens.
3.3rc4 + v2 of your patch series (because there's nothing better than
finding a likely culprit after 8 hours reading unfamiliar code, and
the first search result for its commit log has words "However, some
devices currently have issues with that fix, so we must implement a
flag that delays the ahci_start_engine() call only for specific
controllers" along with a patch):

It lives! (and it works fine all the way back to 2.6.32, possibly earlier).
Now, the reason I'm picking on you is that git blame only has a
handful of lines in libata-eh.c, and as near as I can figure, the only
lines of code that changed in 3.3 that would seem to be able to cause
this are the ones that your series is a quasi revert of. I don't have
hard evidence yet (unless the logged messages are more damning than I
think they are), but it does seem likely that, at the very least, you
might have some idea what's going on :p
