commit1e641060c4("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") added a workaround that broke the retry mechanism in ATA EH. Tejun himself suggested to remove this workaround when it was identified to cause additional problems: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426135027.GI878@htj.dyndns.org/ He even said: "Hmm... it seems I wasn't thinking straight when I added that work around." https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426155229.GM878@htj.dyndns.org/ While removing the workaround solved the issue, however, the workaround was kept to avoid "spurious hotplug events during reset", and instead another workaround was added on top of the existing workaround in commit8c56cacc72("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()"). Because these IRQs happened when the port was frozen, we know that they were actually a side effect of PxIS and IS.IPS(x) not being cleared before the COMRESET. This is now done in commit 94152042eaa9 ("ata: libahci: clear pending interrupt status"), so these workarounds can now be removed. Since commit1e641060c4("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") has now been reverted, the ATA EH retry mechanism is functional again, so there is once again no need to thaw the port more than once in ata_eh_reset(). This reverts "the workaround on top of the workaround" introduced in commit8c56cacc72("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()").

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
