Subject: [GIT PULL] libata changes for v4.5-rc1

Hello, Linus.

Mostly low level driver specific changes.  Two changes are somewhat
noteworthy.  First, Dan's patchset to support per-port msix interrupt
handling for ahci, which was tried last cycle but had to be backed out
due to a couple issues, is back and seems to be working fine.  Second,
libata exception handling now uses usleep_range() instead of msleep()
for sleeps < 20ms which can make things snappier in some corner cases.

Thanks.

The following changes since commit 4d92f0099a06ef0e36c7673f7c090f1a448b2d1b:
