Yeah, right. :-( The simplest way to implement this would be just
calling ata_std_qc_defer() which computes per-link restrictions after
ruling out all non-standard restrictions.  I wasn't really sure how
EDMA/NCQ_EN flags are supposed to work so just sticked to the original
condition tests.  Mark, can you please help us out here?  :-)

Thanks.
