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.
