New Revision: 220777

Log:
- Tune different wait loops to cut some more milliseconds from reset time.
- Do not call ahci_start() before device signature received. It is required
by the specification and caused non-fatal reset timeouts on AMD chipsets.
Do you have to use DELAY() here rather than a blocking sleep via pause()?
At the moment I would say yes. These paths are called from CAM while
holding SIM lock. CAM may not like if I drop the lock in the middle of
the call. Also during recovery those functions could be called from the
callout and interrupt threads. In that case even dropping the lock won't
allow thread to sleep.
I will think more about possibilities to refactor the code to replace
some DELAYs with callouts, but requirement to keep functionality in
polled mode doesn't make the task easier.
