Subject: pata_legacy: fix no device fail path
From: Tejun Heo <htejun@xxxxxxxxx>

When pata_legacy can't detect any device, it unregisters the
platform_device and fails detection.  However, it forgets to detach ata
host triggering weird failures as the host later gets freed by devres
while still attached.  Fix it.
