libata: improve post-reset device ready test
Some controllers (jmb and inic162x) use 0x77 and 0x7f to indicate that the device isn't ready yet. It looks like they use 0xff if device presence is detected but connection isn't established. 0x77 or 0x7f after connection is established and use the value from signature FIS after receiving it. This patch implements ata_check_ready(), which takes TF status value and determines whether the port is ready or not considering the above and other conditions, and use it in @check_ready() functions. This is safe as both 0x77 and 0x7f aren't valid ready status value even though they have BSY bit cleared. This fixes hot plug detection failures which can be triggered with certain drives if they aren't already spun up when the data connector is hot plugged. Tested on sil, sil24, ahci (jmb/ich), piix and inic162x combined with eight drives from all major vendors. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
