Separate out ata_dev_read_id() from ata_dev_identify(). This is the

ata_dev_read_id() doesn't modify any of libata-internal data
structures. It simply reads IDENTIFY page and returns error code on
failure. INIT_DEV_PARAMS and EDD wrong class code are also handled by
this function.
Re-reading IDENTIFY after INIT_DEV_PARAMS is performed by jumping to
retry: instead of calling ata_dev_reread_id(). This is done because
1. there's retry label anyway 2. ata_dev_reread_id() cannot be used
anywhere else so there's no reason to keep it.
This function is probably the place to set transfer mode to PIO0
before IDENTIFY. However, reset -> identify -> init_dev_params order
should be kept for pre-ATA4 devices so we cannot set transfer mode
before IDENTIFY for them. How do we know if a device is post-ATA4
before IDENTIFY?

applied 1-2, will get to the rest a bit later, after other work and some
testing of this work.
Hello, Jeff.
How is this going? Just checking as it's been more than a week.
