+                       separated list of "[ID:]VAL" where ID is
+                       PORT[:DEVICE].  PORT and DEVICE are decimal numbers
+                       matching port, link or device.  Basically, it matches
+                       the ATA ID string printed on console by libata.  If
+                       the whole ID part is omitted, the last PORT and DEVICE
+                       values are used.  If ID hasn't been specified yet, the
+                       configuration applies to all ports, links and devices.
+
+                       If only DEVICE is omitted, the parameter applies to
+                       the port and all links and devices behind it.  DEVICE

+                       select the host link.  DEVICE number of 15 selects the
+                       host link and device attached to it.
+
+                       The VAL specifies the configuration to force.  As long
+                       as there's no ambiguity shortcut notation is allowed.

+                         Any ID with matching PORT is used.
+
+                       * SATA link speed limit: 1.5Gbps or 3.0Gbps.
+
+                       * Transfer mode: pio[0-7], mwdma[0-4] and udma[0-7].
