SRU for F/OEM-5.6/G: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-
team/2020-September/113289.html

** Description changed:

+ [SRU Justification]
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ When booting with a certain platforms with boot disk attached to SATA
+ bus behind Intel VMD controller, disk probing may fail with following
+ error messages left in dmesg:
+ 
+   [ 6.163286] ata1.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec)
+   [ 6.165630] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Proposed kernel patch https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11758345/
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ Check dmesg/lsblk for disk probe.
+ 
+ For pci MSI address, check lspci output:
+ 
+   $ lspci -vvnn
+   ....
+       Capabilities: [80] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 maskable- 64bit-
+           Address: fee00000  Data: 0000
+ 
+ When it fails, the address is fee00000. And with a patched kernel:
+ 
+   $ lspci -vvnn
+   ....
+       Capabilities: [80] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 maskable- 64bit-
+           Address: fee01000  Data: 0000
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Low.  For previous NVMe based platforms, this patch brings no effective
+ change for NVMe devices because they will still stay in fast-interrupt
+ list.
+ 
+ ========== Original Bug Description ==========
