sata_mv add temporary 3 second init delay for SiliconImage PMs
sata_mv does not yet fully support hotplug (coming soon, though). This means that the driver may not find a Silicon Image port-multiplier when first loaded, because those devices take in exceess of 3 seconds to sync up the SATA PHY (most devices do this in mere microseconds). So, as a short-term interim measure, here we insert a 3-second pause on initial driver load, once per controller board (not once per port!), to allow the Silicon Image port-multipliers to be detected later. This will be removed again (soon!) once hotplug is fully implemented/working. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <mlord@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
