This is code comment so no need to "quote" this in the commit message
(line starting with '>'). Seeing the patch in an email client, it looks
weird :)

The "nodb" naming is not super clear...
Maybe change the name to:

board_ahci_no_debounce_delay

or

board_ahci_no_resume_delay

?

Longer, but clearer.

Patch 1 introduces this macro in pci_ids.h, but it is used only here. So
to keep with the current style in this structure, drop the macro (so
drop patch 1).
