ahci_xgene: Fix the dma state machine lockup for the ATA_CMD_SMART PIO mode command.



This patch addresses the issue with ATA_CMD_SMART pio mode command for
enumeration and device detection with ATA devices.  The X-Gene AHCI
controller has an errata in which it cannot clear the BSY bit after
the PIO setup FIS. The dma state machine enters CMFatalErrorUpdate
state and locks up. It is the same issue as in the commit 2a0bdff6
("ahci-xgene: fix the dma state machine lockup for the IDENTIFY DEVICE
PIO mode command").

For example :  without this patch it results in READ DMA command failure
as shown below :

 [  126.700072] ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0
		SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen
 [  126.707089] ata2.00: failed command: READ DMA
 [  126.711426] ata2.00: cmd c8/00:08:00:55:57/00:00:00:00:00/e1 tag 1
                dma 4096 in
 [  126.711426]  res 40/00:ff:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/40 Emask
		0x4 (timeout)
 [  126.725956] ata2.00: status: { DRDY }
