When we are hosted on a Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor the guest disks
are exposed both via the Hyper-V paravirtualised drivers and via an
emulated SATA disk drive.  In this case we want to use the paravirtualised
drivers if we can as they are much more efficient.  Note that the Hyper-V
paravirtualised drivers only expose the virtual hard disk devices, the
CDROM/DVD devices must still be enumerated.

Mark the host controller ATA_HOST_IGNORE_ATA to prevent enumeration of
disk devices.

    You could instead use:

#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HYPERV_STORAGE)

Add support for ignoring disks devices on specific host controllers to
libata.  Use this support to trigger us to ignore Hyper-V disk devices
on the emulated SATA device based on the system DMI information.

Fixes based on feedback Sergei Shtylyov, thanks.  Jeff I think this is
about done, any objections to merging?

Comments?

-apw

V5
  - switched to IS_ENABLED
  - fixed device type in device ignored messages

V4
  - only enable the quirk when the paravirtualised drivers are compiled
  - fix up the command line flag to disable this support

V3
  - switch detection method to DMI information

V2 
  - create a generic libata quirk
  - switch detection to piix_init_one

Andy Whitcroft (2):
  libata: add a host flag to ignore detected ATA devices
  ata_piix: defer disks to the Hyper-V drivers by default
