This patch fixes the followings regarding sht usage in libata drivers.

There's no reason to set it to any value.

to support device warm unplugging (echo 1 > /sys/.../delete).
Without it, libata might access released scsi device.

Another candidate for #upstream-fixes.
if you want stuff in #upstream-fixes, you have to cut the patch down to
its bare minimum. the max_sectors change in this case is a cleanup.
I ACK the patch, but ask: would you prefer to split the patch, or just
this into #upstream?
I'll split.
