That table misses 0x7900h. (Where can I find it?) coreboot has 0x7900 
defined for Cezanne:

     src/include/device/pci_ids.h:#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMD_CZ_SATA  0x7900
     src/soc/amd/stoneyridge/include/soc/pci_devs.h: * SATA_IDE_IDEVID 
              0x7900

The PCI database too [3]:

It’s more about clarity, and understanding the two different entries.

Why can’t the LPM policy, if available(?), not be set for `board_ahci` 
by default, so `board_ahci_mobile` could be removed?
