Hmmmm... maybe you're right and we don't need to allow LLDDs to override
hotplug operation.  After all, LLDDs cannot override ata_bus_probe().
But, then again, it's just nice and consistent to allow overriding of
the operation.  And, ata_eh_hotplug() fits nicely with other EH
operations, IMHO.  And calling one more operation isn't really a big deal.

Maybe, we need to come up with the function which packages standard
calls to eh helpers for drivers like sata_sil24 and ahci, but I think
the current level of code duplication is well within acceptable range.

Do you have any other reason than duplicated calls to ata_eh_hotplug()?
