When updating PROG_PHY_LINK_RATE to set linkrate for a phy we used a hard-coded initial value instead of getting the current value from the register. The assumption was that this register would not be modified, but in fact it was partially modified in a new version of hardware. The hard-coded value we used changed the default value of the register to a an incorrect setting and as a result the SAS controller could not change linkrate for the phy. Delete hard-coded value and always read the latest value of register before updating it.

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.
