NAME
       ata_force_link_limits - force link limits according to libata.force

SYNOPSIS
       void ata_force_link_limits(struct ata_link * link);

ARGUMENTS
       link
           ATA link of interest

DESCRIPTION
       Force link flags and SATA spd limit according to libata.force and whine about it. When
       only the port part is specified (e.g. 1:), the limit applies to all links connected to
       both the host link and all fan-out ports connected via PMP. If the device part is
       specified as 0 (e.g. 1.00:), it specifies the first fan-out link not the host link. Device
       number 15 always points to the host link whether PMP is attached or not. If the controller
       has slave link, device number 16 points to it.

       LOCKING: EH context.
