Thanks for your patch, which is now commit b4d3ddd2df7531e3 ("scsi:
libsas: Define NCQ Priority sysfs attributes for SATA devices")
in scsi-mkp/for-next

When both CONFIG_SCSI_SAS_ATA and CONFIG_SATA_HOST are enabled:

aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/ata/libata-sata.o:(.data+0x110):
multiple definition of `dev_attr_ncq_prio_supported';
drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_ata.o:(.data+0x260): first defined here
aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/ata/libata-sata.o:(.data+0xd8): multiple
definition of `dev_attr_ncq_prio_enable';
drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_ata.o:(.data+0x228): first defined here

Making both new DEVICE_ATTR() declarations static doesn't work,
as <linux/libata.h> contains a forward declaration for the existing global
dev_attr_ncq_prio_supported in libata:

Perhaps the new attributes can be renamed?
Alternatively, the DEVICE_ATTR() can be open-coded, so the actual
device_attribute structures are named differently.
