sata_sil24: prevent hba lockup when pass-through ATA commands are used
Fix commands timeout with Sil3124/3132 based HBA when pass-through ATA
commands [where ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF is set] are used while other
commands are active on other devices connected to the same port with a
Port Multiplier. Due to a hardware bug, these commands must be sent
alone, like ATAPI commands.
