The updated comments "Wait at least 10 ms" seems not correct.

Thanks,

Subject: [edk2] [PATCH v2] MdeModulePkg/AtaAtapiPassThru: relax PHY detect 
timeout

The SATA spec mandates that link detection by the PHY completes within
10 ms after receiving a reset signal. However, there is no obligation to uphold 
this requirement at the driver end as strictly as we do, and as it turns out, 
some combinations of host and device (e.g., Samsung
850 EVO connected to a LeMaker Cello) are only borderline compliant, which 
means the device is not detected reliably.

So let's allow for a bit of margin, and increase the PHY detect timeout value 
to 15 ms.
