The sata on fsl mpc8315e is broken after the commit 8a4aeec8d2d6
("libata/ahci: accommodate tag ordered controllers"). The reason is
that the ata controller on this SoC only implement a queue depth of
16. When issuing the commands in tag order, all the commands in tag
16 ~ 31 are mapped to tag 0 unconditionally and then causes the sata
malfunction. It makes no senses to use a 32 queue in software while
the hardware has less queue depth. So consider the queue depth
implemented by the hardware when requesting a command tag.

v4:
- Change WARN_ON_ONCE() to WARN_ON() and move it to ata_host_register()
- Add comment for function ata_qc_new()
v3: Use ap->scsi_host->can_queue for the queue depth implemented by hardware.
Patch 2 in v2 is also dropped due to this change.
v2: Remove the changes for the ata tag helper functions
