    libata: limit post SRST nsect/lbal wait to ~100ms · e141d999

    After SRST, libata used to wait for nsect/lbal to be set to 1/1 for
    the slave device.  However, some ATAPI devices don't set nsect/lbal
    after SRST and the wait itself isn't too useful as we're gonna wait
    for !BSY right after that anyway.
    
    Before reset-seq update, nsect/lbal wait failure used to be ignored
    and caused 30sec delay during detection.  After reset-seq, all
    timeouts are considered error conditions making libata fail to detect
    such ATAPI devices.
    
    This patch limits nsect/lbal wait to around 100ms.  This should give
    acceptable behavior to such ATAPI devices while not disturbing the
    heavily used code path too much.
