libata: improve EH retry delay handling

EH retries were delayed by 5 seconds to ensure that resets don't occur
back-to-back.  However, this 5 second delay is superflous or excessive
in many cases.  For example, after IDENTIFY times out, there's no
reason to wait five more seconds before retrying.

This patch adds ehc->last_reset timestamp and record the timestamp for
the last reset trial or success and uses it to space resets by
ATA_EH_RESET_COOL_DOWN which is 5 secs and removes unconditional 5 sec
sleeps.

As this change makes inter-try waits often shorter and they're
redundant in nature, this patch also removes the "retrying..."
messages.

While at it, convert explicit rounding up division to DIV_ROUND_UP().

This change speeds up EH in many cases w/o sacrificing robustness.
