libata: async resume
Improve overall system resume time by making libata link recovery actions asynchronous relative to other resume events. Link resume operations are performed using the scsi_eh thread, so commands, particularly the sd resume start/stop command, will be held off until the device exits error handling. Libata already flushes eh with ata_port_wait_eh() in the port teardown paths, so there are no concerns with async operation colliding with the end-of-life of the ata_port object. Also, libata-core is already careful to flush in-flight pm operations before another round of pm starts on the given ata_port.
