This patch adds ACPI match table in ahci_platform. The table includes
the acpi_device_id to match AMD Seattle SATA controller with following
asl structure in DSDT:

     Device (SATA0)
     {
       Name(_HID, "AMDI0600") // Seattle AHSATA

There really ought to be a well-defined PNPID for AHCI, so you can _HID
to AMD and _CID to something generic. That way we won't have:

+#ifdef CONFIG_ATA_ACPI
+static const struct acpi_device_id ahci_acpi_match[] = {
+       { "AMDI0600", 0 }, /* AMD Seattle AHCI */
+       { },
+};

utter sadness here. Really, please don't end up in a situation where we
need to add device-specific IDs to a generic driver.

Matthew,

Currently, there is no _CID defined for generic AHCI. We will work on proposing one, and provide update patches for including the new ID.

Thanks,
Suravee
