Many users reported the issue when running the system with Samsung 860,
870 SSD, and AMD chipset. Therefore, completely disabling the NCQ can
avoid this issue.
Entire disabling NCQ for Samsung 860/870 SSD will cause I/O performance
drop. In this case, a flag ATA_HORKAGE_NONCQ_ON_AMD is introduced to
used to perform an additional check for these SSDs. If it finds its parent
ATA controller is AMD, the NCQ will be disabled. Otherwise, the NCQ is kept
to enable.
Changes since v3
* Modified the flag from ATA_HORKAGE_NONCQ_ON_ASMEDIA_AMD_MARVELL to
ATA_HORKAGE_NONCQ_ON_AMD.
* Modified and fixed the code to completely disable NCQ on AMD controller.

Many users are reporting that the Samsung 860 and 870 SSD are having
various issues when combined with AMD SATA controllers and only
completely disabling NCQ helps to avoid these issues.
Entire disabling NCQ for Samsugn 860/870 SSD will cause I/O performance
drop. In this case, a flag ATA_HORKAGE_NONCQ_ON_AMD is introduced to
used to perform an additional check for these SSDs. If it finds it's
parent ATA controller is AMD, the NCQ will be disabled. Otherwise, the
NCQ is kept to enable.

For a single patch, generally, a cover letter is not needed. Especially so in
this case since your cover letter message is the same as the patch commit message.

Technically, this is a v2 right ? Also, by "completely", did you mean "always" ?

With "Entire disabling NCQ...", did you mean "Always disabling NCQ" ?
If I understand this issue correctly, the explanation should be something like:
Always disabling NCQ for Samsung 860/870 SSDs regardless of the host SATA
adapter vendor will cause I/O performance degradation with well behaved
adapters. To limit the performance impact to AMD adapters, introduce the
ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_ON_AMD flag to force disable NCQ only for these adapters.

It would be really nice to move this hunk into a small helper, something like:
static bool ata_dev_check_adapter(struct ata_device *dev,
unsigned short vendor_id)
The "if" code block then becomes:
if ((dev->horkage & ATA_HORKAGE_NONCQ_ON_AMD) &&
ata_dev_check_adapter(dev, PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMD)) {
snprintf(desc, desc_sz, "NCQ (not used)");
return 0;

Please add a "_" after "NO", similarly to ATA_HORKAGE_NO_NCQ_TRIM:

Right, as mentioned in my reply to the v1 which was accidentally labelled v2
I suggested to just make this v3 to avoid confusion, otherwise we would have
2 v2-s.
