Ah good catch, at some point I decided to prefix all the ahci_* functions defined in ahci_platform.c
with ahci_platform_ instead of just ahci_. Somehow the functions got added with their new names
directly in the "ahci-platform: Add support for devices with more then 1 clock" patch (this is
intentional), but the calls added in that patch kept using the old names. Then in the
"ahci-platform: Add enable_ / disable_resources helper functions" patch
the calls get moved to another place and now show up with the proper ahci_platform_*
names. My bad.

Tejun it is probably easiest if you fix this up directly in your tree, let me know if you
want a fixed up resend of the 2 patches in question instead.

Regards,

Hans
