ATA_CMD_STANDBYNOW1 is not in the ata_eh_cmd_timeout_table and falls
back to the 5s default (ATA_EH_CMD_DFL_TIMEOUT), which is too short
for some drives to complete a STANDBY IMMEDIATE command issued from
ata_dev_power_set_standby() via ata_exec_internal():

  ata1.00: qc timeout after 5000 msecs (cmd 0xe0)
  ata1.00: STANDBY IMMEDIATE failed (err_mask=0x4)

Reuse the existing ata_eh_flush_timeouts for this command, as a drive
entering standby may need to flush its internal cache, making the flush
timeout a natural fit.

This patch does not seem to be on top of latest Linus tree.

If you look at latest Linus tree, it already has:
1e024d2b41ee ("ata: libata-eh: Increase STANDBY IMMEDIATE timeout")

Which looks to solve the same problem as this patch.


Kind regards,
Niklas

Aha, thanks for the quick review!

I usually base my work on the "for-next" branches of 
"kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git" and kernel/git/mkp/scsi.git", and I 
mistakenly thought there were no new changes in latest Linus tree.

Thanks,
Xingui
