libata: improve probe failure handling 

When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to
repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating
high link speed.  This often leads to consecutive hotplug events
without successful probing.

This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials
and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past
60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps.

As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the
goal of this fallback mechanism is to provide the last resort when
everything else fails, which unfortunately happens not too
infrequently, so no fancy 6->3->1.5 speeding down or highest
successful transmission speed seen kind of logics (yet).
