Apologies for asking you to test again, but could you try this simpler
version of the initial tweak:

diff --git a/drivers/ata/libata-core.c b/drivers/ata/libata-core.c
index 884ae73b11ea..2ea572628b1c 100644
--- a/drivers/ata/libata-core.c
+++ b/drivers/ata/libata-core.c
@@ -3109,7 +3109,7 @@ int sata_down_spd_limit(struct ata_link *link, u32
spd_limit)
         */
        if (spd > 1)
                mask &= (1 << (spd - 1)) - 1;
-       else
+       else if (link->sata_spd)
                return -EINVAL;

        /* were we already at the bottom? */

This is a partial revert of the commit that created the issue in the
first place. But better check this is OK.
