libata: Handle drives that require a spin-up command before first access
(S)ATA drives can be configured for "power-up in standby", a mode whereby a specific "spin up now!" command is required before the first media access. Currently, a drive with this feature enabled can not be used at all with libata, and once in this mode, the drive becomes a doorstop. The older drivers/ide subsystem at least enumerates the drive, so that it can be woken up after the fact from a userspace HDIO_* command, but not libata. This patch adds support to libata for the "power-up in standby" mode where a "spin up now!" command (SET_FEATURES) is needed. With this, libata will recognize such drives, spin them up, and then re-IDENTIFY them if necessary to get a full/complete set of drive features data. Drives in this state are determined by looking for special values in id[2], as documented in the current ATA specs.
