For Ric's case, I'm waiting for more info. If EH is looping forever
without reporting to upper layer, it definitely needs fixing, but I
don't think that's the case.
What happens with the loop in ata_port_wait_eh() for a drive
which never succeeds in the reset/reinit phase?
Reset/reinit phases don't repeat endlessly. It's limited by
ATA_EH_RESET_TRIES and ATA_EH_DEV_TRIES. When a device uses up all its
chances, it gets ata_dev_disable()'d and offlined.
