ata_wait_idle() complains when the device isn't idle 10ms wait. However, this function sometimes is used on empty ports. As SATA controllers report arbitrary status on empty ports, this causes spurious warning messages. * separate ata_wait_idle_quiet() from ata_wait_idle() * use _quiet version in ata_irq_on() * fix warning message in ata_wait_idle() to use ata_port_printk() while at it This makes spurious abnormal status messages seen in many sff controllers.
