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.

EH retries were delayed by 5 seconds to ensure that resets don't occur
back-to-back. However, this 5 second delay is superflous or excessive
in many cases. For example, after IDENTIFY times out, there's no
reason to wait five more seconds before retrying.
This patch adds ehc->last_reset timestamp and record the timestamp for
the last reset trial or success and uses it to space resets by
ATA_EH_RESET_COOL_DOWN which is 5 secs and removes unconditional 5 sec
sleeps.
As this change makes inter-try waits often shorter and they're
redundant in nature, this patch also removes the "retrying..."
messages.

libata has been using mix of jiffies and msecs for time druations.

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.

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.

ata_ehi_schedule_probe() was created to hide details of link-resuming

scheduling probe is very simple - set probe_mask and request RESET.
Kill ata_ehi_schedule_probe() and open code it. This also increases
consistency as ata_ehi_schedule_probe() couldn't cover individual
device probings so they were open-coded even when the helper existed.

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.

After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain
ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for
consistency. However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers
which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making
hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus
makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be
skipped. The end result is that after a device is swapped with
another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is
detached.
