      libata: introduce notion of separate hardware tags

      libata: bump ->qc_active to a 64-bit type

      libata: remove assumption that ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 is the max
      sata_nv: set host can_queue count appropriately
      libata: add extra internal command
Replying here because I can't find the original mail.

The above commit is causing one of my machines to constantly spew ata
messages on the console, according to bisect:

# first bad commit: [28361c403683c2b00d4f5e76045f3ccd299bf99d] libata: add extra internal command

To get it to boot I have to also apply:

  88e10092f6a6 ("sata_fsl: use the right type for tag bitshift")


The system boots OK and seems fine, except that it's just printing
multiple of these per second:

  ata2: Signature Update detected @ 0 msecs
  ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
  ata2.00: configured for UDMA/100

Actually, just try this one on top of current -git.
Yep that fixes it.

No more message spam, and when I try to mount sr0 it says "no medium".

I'll have to go into the office to actually put a disc in the drive
to check it's really working, but it seems likely.

Thanks for debugging it, here's a tested-by if you like:
