Subject: [PATCH] libata: clear drvdata in ata_host_release(), take#2

Clearing drvdata in ->remove_one causes NULL pointer deference.  Clear
drvdata only in ata_host_release() after all resources are freed.

pata_pcmcia is fixed by Alan's patch.  This fixes other drivers and
make libata always clear drvdata after detach.
