Implement unload unplug - driver unloading / PCI removal via hot
unplug path.  This is done by ata_port_detach() which requests detach
of all devices, schedules EH and wait for it to complete.  EH path is
slightly modified to handle this (e.g. force zero eh_info during
unloading).  With this patch, EH and unloading are properly
synchronized and unloading should be safe under any circumstances.

How does this behave for controller hotplug? For that case, there is nothing to EH...
