ATA_TMOUT_INTERNAL which was 30secs were used for all internal
commands which is way too long when something goes wrong. This patch
implements command type based stepped timeouts. Different command
types can use different timeouts and each command type can use
different timeout values after timeouts.
ie. the initial timeout is set to a value which should cover most of
the cases but not too long so that run away cases don't delay things
too much. After the first try times out, the second try can use
longer timeout and if that one times out too, it can go for full 30sec
timeout.
IDENTIFYs use 5s - 10s - 30s timeout and all other commands use 5s -
10s timeouts.
This patch significantly cuts down the needed time to handle failure
cases while still allowing libata to work with nut job devices through
retries.

libata has been using mix of jiffies and msecs for time druations.
This is getting confusing. As writing sub HZ values in jiffies is
PITA and msecs_to_jiffies() can't be used as initializer, unify unit
for all time durations to msecs. So, durations are in msecs and
deadlines are in jiffies. ata_deadline() is added to compute deadline
from a start time and duration in msecs.
While at it, drop now superflous _msec suffix from arguments and
rename @timeout to @deadline if it represents a fixed point in time
rather than duration.

Originally, whole reset processing was done while the port is frozen
and SError was cleared during @postreset(). This had two race
conditions. 1: hotplug could occur after reset but before SError is
cleared and libata won't know about it. 2: hotplug could occur after
all the reset is complete but before the port is thawed. As all
events are cleared on thaw, the hotplug event would be lost.
Commit ac371987a8 kills the first race
by clearing SError during link resume but before link onlineness test.
However, this doesn't fix race #2 and in some cases clearing SError
after SRST is a good idea.
This patch solves this problem by cross checking link onlineness with
classification result after SError is cleared and port is thawed.
Reset is retried if link is online but all devices attached to the
link are unknown. As all devices will be revalidated, this one-way
check is enough to ensure that all devices are detected and
revalidated reliably.
This, luckily, also fixes the cases where host controller returns
bogus status while harddrive is spinning up after hotplug making
classification run before the device sends the first FIS and thus
causes misdetection.
Low level drivers can bypass the logic by setting class explicitly to
ATA_DEV_NONE if ever necessary (currently none requires this).

Currently reset methods are not specified directly in the
ata_port_operations table. If a LLD wants to use custom reset
methods, it should construct and use a error_handler which uses those
reset methods. It's done this way for two reasons.
First, the ops table already contained too many methods and adding
four more of them would noticeably increase the amount of necessary
boilerplate code all over low level drivers.
Second, as ->error_handler uses those reset methods, it can get
confusing. ie. By overriding ->error_handler, those reset ops can be
made useless making layering a bit hazy.
Now that ops table uses inheritance, the first problem doesn't exist
anymore. The second isn't completely solved but is relieved by
providing default values - most drivers can just override what it has
implemented and don't have to concern itself about higher level
callbacks. In fact, there currently is no driver which actually
modifies error handling behavior. Drivers which override
->error_handler just wraps the standard error handler only to prepare
the controller for EH. I don't think making ops layering strict has
any noticeable benefit.
This patch makes ->prereset, ->softreset, ->hardreset, ->postreset and
their PMP counterparts propoer ops. Default ops are provided in the
base ops tables and drivers are converted to override individual reset
methods instead of creating custom error_handler.
* ata_std_error_handler() doesn't use sata_std_hardreset() if SCRs
aren't accessible. sata_promise doesn't need to use separate
error_handlers for PATA and SATA anymore.
* softreset is broken for sata_inic162x and sata_sx4. As libata now
always prefers hardreset, this doesn't really matter but the ops are
forced to NULL using ATA_OP_NULL for documentation purpose.
* pata_hpt374 needs to use different prereset for the first and second
PCI functions. This used to be done by branching from
hpt374_error_handler(). The proper way to do this is to use
separate ops and port_info tables for each function. Converted.

port_info->private_data is currently used for two purposes - to record
private data about the port_info or to specify host->private_data to

port_info->private_data becomes host->private_data instead of
port->private_data. In addition, port_info and host don't correspond

port_info->private_data is used.
This patch makes port_info->private_data just be what it is -
private_data for the port_info where LLD can jot down extra info.
libata no longer sets host->private_data to the first non-NULL
port_info->private_data, @host_priv argument is added to
ata_pci_init_one() instead. LLDs which use ata_pci_init_one() can use

libata lets low level drivers build ata_port_operations table and
register it with libata core layer. This allows low level drivers
high level of flexibility but also burdens them with lots of
boilerplate entries.
This becomes worse for drivers which support related similar
controllers which differ slightly. They share most of the operations
except for a few. However, the driver still needs to list all
operations for each variant. This results in large number of
duplicate entries, which is not only inefficient but also error-prone
as it becomes very difficult to tell what the actual differences are.
This duplicate boilerplates all over the low level drivers also make
updating the core layer exteremely difficult and error-prone. When
compounded with multi-branched development model, it ends up
accumulating inconsistencies over time. Some of those inconsistencies
cause immediate problems and fixed. Others just remain there dormant
making maintenance increasingly difficult.
To rectify the problem, this patch implements ata_port_operations
inheritance. To allow LLDs to easily re-use their own ops tables
overriding only specific methods, this patch implements poor man's
class inheritance. An ops table has ->inherits field which can be set
to any ops table as long as it doesn't create a loop. When the host
is started, the inheritance chain is followed and any operation which
isn't specified is taken from the nearest ancestor which has it
specified. This operation is called finalization and done only once
per an ops table and the LLD doesn't have to do anything special about
it other than making the ops table non-const such that libata can
update it.
libata provides four base ops tables lower drivers can inherit from -
base, sata, pmp, sff and bmdma. To avoid overriding these ops
accidentaly, these ops are declared const and LLDs should always
inherit these instead of using them directly.
After finalization, all the ops table are identical before and after
the patch except for setting .irq_handler to ata_interrupt in drivers
which didn't use to. The .irq_handler doesn't have any actual effect
and the field will soon be removed by later patch.
* sata_sx4 is still using old style EH and currently doesn't take
advantage of ops inheritance.

Some controllers can't reliably record the initial D2H FIS after SATA
link is brought online for whatever reason. Advanced controllers
which don't have traditional TF register based interface often have
this problem as they don't really have the TF registers to update
while the controller and link are being initialized.
SKIP_D2H_BSY works around the problem by skipping the wait for device
readiness before issuing SRST, so for such controllers libata issues
SRST blindly and hopes for the best.
Now that libata defaults to hardreset, this workaround is no longer
necessary. For controllers which have support for hardreset, SRST is
never issued by itself. It is only issued as follow-up SRST for
device classification and PMP initialization, so there's no need to
wait for it from prereset.

When both soft and hard resets are available, libata preferred
softreset till now. The logic behind it was to be softer to devices;
however, this doesn't really help much. Rationales for the change:
* BIOS may freeze lock certain things during boot and softreset can't
unlock those. This by itself is okay but during operation PHY event
or other error conditions can trigger hardreset and the device may
end up with different configuration.
For example, after a hardreset, previously unlockable HPA can be
unlocked resulting in different device size and thus revalidation
failure. Similar condition can occur during or after resume.
* Certain ATAPI devices require hardreset to recover after certain
error conditions. On PATA, this is done by issuing the DEVICE RESET
command. On SATA, COMRESET has equivalent effect. The problem is
that DEVICE RESET needs its own execution protocol.
For SFF controllers with bare TF access, it can be easily
implemented but more advanced controllers (e.g. ahci and sata_sil24)
require specialized implementations. Simply using hardreset solves
the problem nicely.
* COMRESET initialization sequence is the norm in SATA land and many
SATA devices don't work properly if only SRST is used. For example,
some PMPs behave this way and libata works around by always issuing
hardreset if the host supports PMP.
Like the above example, libata has developed a number of mechanisms
aiming to promote softreset to hardreset if softreset is not going
to work. This approach is time consuming and error prone.
Also, note that, dependingon how you read the specs, it could be
argued that PMP fan-out ports require COMRESET to start operation.
In fact, all the PMPs on the market except one don't work properly
if COMRESET is not issued to fan-out ports after PMP reset.
* COMRESET is an integral part of SATA connection and any working
device should be able to handle COMRESET properly. After all, it's
the way to signal hardreset during reboot. This is the most used
and recommended (at least by the ahci spec) method of resetting
devices.
So, this patch makes libata prefer hardreset over softreset by making
the following changes.
* Rename ATA_EH_RESET_MASK to ATA_EH_RESET and use it whereever
ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET used to be used. ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET is
now only used to tell prereset whether soft or hard reset will be
issued.
* Strip out now unneeded promote-to-hardreset logics from
ata_eh_reset(), ata_std_prereset(), sata_pmp_std_prereset() and
other places.
