sata_nv: don't use legacy DMA in ADMA mode
PATCH 1/2 sata_nv: don't use legacy DMA in ADMA mode
We need to run any DMA command with result taskfile requested in ADMA mode when the port is in ADMA mode, otherwise it may try to use the legacy DMA engine in ADMA mode which is not allowed. Enforce this with BUG_ON() since data corruption could potentially result if this happened.

So, now if an ATA DMA command is issued w/ RESULT_TF set, it's issued using ADMA. Then when nv_adma_tf_read() is called on success path, it switches into register mode and read TF which is okay as long as there's no other ADMA commands in flight and that's why you wrote about not issuing NCQ commands via NCQ. Am I understanding it correctly?
If so, can you please add that switching into register mode is okay as long as there's no other ADMA commands in flight and add WARN_ON((qc->flags & ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF) && link->sactive)?
Thanks.

More accurately, link->sactive test can be substituted with (ap->qc_allocated & ~(1 << qc->tag)).

Unfortunately we only get the ata_port and ata_taskfile in the tf_read callback, so I'm not sure if we can do the equivalent of the qc->flags & ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF test (i.e. distinguishing between the error-handling case where we care if we abort outstanding commands and the normal case with a RESULT_TF command where we do)..

You can test it in ->qc_issue(), no?
