libata: don't normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after reset
After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for consistency. However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be skipped. The end result is that after a device is swapped with another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is detached. This patch makes ata_eh_reset() not normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after non-classifying resets. This fixes the above problem. As UNKNOWN and NONE are handled differently by only EH hotplug logic, this doesn't cause other behavior changes.
