Revert "libata: ahci_start_engine compliant to AHCI spec"

This reverts commit 270dac35c26433d06a89150c51e75ca0181ca7e4.

The commits causes command timeouts on AC plug/unplug.  It isn't yet
clear why.  As the commit was for a single rather obscure controller,
revert the change for now.

The problem was reported and bisected by Gu Rui in bug#34692.
