SRU JUSTIFICATION:

IMPACT: Western Digital Caviar SE SATA 2nd Generation Hard Drive is not
recognized by the kernel.

FIX: Make ata_dev_classify() report ATA_DEV_SEMB on the
     sig and let ata_dev_read_id() work around it by trying IDENTIFY once.

TEST: Originator of the bug has tested the kernel in
http://people.ubuntu.com/~manjo/lp257790-jaunty/ and reported it works.
