libata: assume ATA_DEV_ATA on diagnostic failure
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Certain device which reports diagnostic failure also reports invalid
device signature.  Assume ATA_DEV_ATA on diagnostic failure if reset
indicates device presence.

This is fix for bugzilla bug 8784.
