3Gbps is often much more prone to transmission failures. It's usually
okay to let EH handle speed down after transmission failures but some
WD My Book drives completely shutdown after certain transmission
failures and after it only power cycling can revive them. Combined
with the fact that external drives often end up with cable assembly
which is longer than usual and more likely to have intervening gender,
this makes these drives very likely to shutdown under certain
configurations virtually rendering them unusable.
This patch implements HOARKGE_1_5_GBPS and applies it to WD My Book
such that 1.5Gbps is forced once the device is identified.
Please take a look at the following bz for related reports.

Let -EAGAIN from EH device handling routines trigger EH retry without
consuming its tries count. This will be used to implement link SPD
horkage which requires hardreset to adjust SPD without affecting other
EH decisions. As it bypasses the forward progress guarantee provided
by the tries count, the requester is responsible for ensuring forward
progress.

When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to
repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating
high link speed. This often leads to consecutive hotplug events
without successful probing.
This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials
and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past
60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps.
As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the
goal of this fallback mechanism is to provide the last resort when
everything else fails, which unfortunately happens not too
infrequently, so no fancy 6->3->1.5 speeding down or highest
successful transmission speed seen kind of logics (yet).

dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in
ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs.
dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs
to remain persistent over multiple porbing events. This patch
achieves this by doing the following.
* Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only
clear between BEGIN and END. ering is moved after END. The split
of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head.
* ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device
attach succeeds. So, ering is persistent throug a device's life
time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods
inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection
of the next one.

The dev->pio_mode > XFER_PIO_0 test is there to avoid unnecessary
speed down warning messages but it accidentally disabled SATA link spd
down during configuration phase after reset where PIO mode is always
zero.
This patch fixes the problem by moving the test where it belongs.
This makes libata probing sequence behave better when the connection
is flaky at higher link speeds which isn't too uncommon for eSATA
devices.

The SSS flag, which directs the OS to spin up one disk at a time
to not have the PSU blow out, sometimes gets set even when not needed.
The effect of this is a longer-than-needed boot time.

Some notebooks from HP have the problem that their BIOSes attempt to
spin down hard drives before entering ACPI system states S4 and S5.
This leads to a yo-yo effect during system power-off shutdown and the
last phase of hibernation when the disk is first spun down by the
kernel and then almost immediately turned on and off by the BIOS.
This, in turn, may result in shortening the disk's life times.
To prevent this from happening we can blacklist the affected systems
using DMI information.

I noticed that during initialization sata_mv.c assumes that the main
interrupt mask has its default value of 0. The function
mv_platform_probe(..) initializes a shadow irq mask with 0 assuming
that's the value of the controller's register. Now
mv_set_main_irq_mask(..) only writes the controller's register if the
new value differs from the "shadowed" value. This is fatal when trying
to disable all interrupts in mv_init_host(..), i.e. the following
function call does not write anything to the main irq mask register:
mv_set_main_irq_mask(host, ~0, 0);
The effect I see on my machine (QNAP TS-109 II) with booting via kexec
(with Linux as a 2nd-stage boot loader) is that if the sata_mv module
was still loaded when performing kexec, then the new kernel's sata_mv
module starts up with interrupts enabled. This results in an unhandled
IRQ and breaks the boot process.
The unhandled interrupt itself might also be fixed by Lennert's patch
proposed at http://markmail.org/message/kwvzxstnlsa3s26w which I did not
try yet.
However I still propose to additionally initialize the shadow variable
with the current contents of the main irq mask register to get both in
sync and allow proper disabling the main irq mask. This fixes the
unhandled irq on my machine.

very unusually, its status is stuck at 0x7f and all others at 0. This
meanst that it fails TF access test but gets detected as a disk due to
classification code check and then evades polling IDENTIFY presence
detection thanks to the missing BSY in the status value causing
excessive delays during boot.
