Subject: [PATCH 3/3] ahci: AMD A85 FCH (Hudson D4): Skip 200 ms debounce delay in `sata_link_resume()`
Since the first commit 1da177e4c3 (Linux-2.6.12-rc2) in the Linux git
repository, `sata_link_resume()` contains a 200 ms delay with the comment
below.
> /*

> * debouncing.

A lot of PHYs do not have that problem though, so delaying 200 ms increases
the boot time by 30 percent unnecessarily for a lot of systems, making
“instant booting” quite hard.
As it’s unknown for what PHY the delay was added, create a new board
`board_ahci_nodbdelay` with the link flag `ATA_LFLAG_NO_DB_DELAY,`, and,
for now, configure the AMD A85 FCH (Hudson D4) to use it.
On the ASUS F2A85-M PRO it reduces the Linux kernel boot time by the
expected 200 ms from 787 ms to 585 ms.
Tested on ASUS F2A85-M PRO:
Without patch, i. e., with 200 ms debounce delay:

Add the two Chromium OS developers Dmitry and Guenter to Cc, as to my
knowledge Chromium/Chrome OS also tries to boot very fast, and the Chromium
project has some CI infrastructure.
