This is should be the ata port lock, right? I know that the ata comments
say differently.

ata_link_abort(), as the comment in ata_link_abort() mentions.


Can you please add a fixes tag?

Really need to add lockdep annotations in libata to avoid/catch such bugs...
Will work on that.

Actually in libata there are many places calling ata_link_abort() not holding port lock. And some places are holding the real host lock(ata_host->lock) while calling ata_link_abort(). So if you add the lockdep annotations, there may be too many warnings. If these are real issues, we should fix them first.

Thanks,
Jason
