libata: improve AC_ERR_DEV handling for ->post_internal_cmd
->post_internal_cmd is simplified EH for internal commands. Its primary mission is to stop the controller such that no rogue memory access or other activities occur after the internal command is released. It may provide error diagnostics by setting qc->err_mask but this hasn't been a requirement. To ignore SETXFER failure for CFA devices, libata needs to know whether a command was failed by the device or for any other reason. ie. internal command needs to get AC_ERR_DEV right. This patch makes the following changes to AC_ERR_DEV handling and ->post_internal_cmd semantics to accomodate this need and simplify callback implementation. 1. As long as the correct bits in the result TF registers are set, there is no need to set AC_ERR_DEV explicitly. libata EH core takes care of that for both normal and internal commands. 2. The only requirement for ->post_internal_cmd() is to put the controller into quiescent state. It needs not to set any err_mask. 3. ata_exec_internal_sg() performs minimal error analysis such that AC_ERR_DEV is automatically set as long as result_tf is filled correctly.
