[Linux-parport] [PATCH 3/4] ata: pata_parport: add custom version of wait_after_reset

Some parallel adapters (e.g. EXP Computer MC-1285B EPP Cable) return
bogus values when there's no master device present. This can cause
reset to fail, preventing the lone slave device (such as EXP Computer
CD-865) from working.

Add custom version of wait_after_reset that ignores master failure when
a slave device is present. The custom version is also needed because
the generic ata_sff_wait_after_reset uses direct port I/O for slave
device detection.
