Subject: libata: apply behavioral quirks to sil3826 PMP

From: Terry Suereth <terry.suereth@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 8ffff94d20b7eb446e848e0046107d51b17a20a8 upstream.

Fixing support for the Silicon Image 3826 port multiplier, by applying
to it the same quirks applied to the Silicon Image 3726.  Specifically
fixes the repeated timeout/reset process which previously afflicted
the 3726, as described from line 290.  Slightly based on notes from:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=890237
