Libata has a complete set of transfer mode tables and timing functions -
any reason for not using them ?

Why not 

			if ((tdvs + tcyc_tvds) < tcyc)
				tcyc_tdvs = tcyc - tdvs;

			if (tkw + td < n0)
				tkw = n0 - td;

(and fix up brackets)

Does this need a timeout or can a device write never get stuck ?

Is this an error case - if you clear the UDMA/MWDMA mask then DMA won't
be needed will it so you can continue after the problem but slowly ?


Otherwise looks sound. A lot of reset method duplication but that isn't
your fault and something that wants more work in libata to avoid
