Subject: [ 13/18] ahci: remove pmp link online check in FBS EH

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Shane Huang <shane.huang@....com>

commit 912b9ac683b112615d5605686f1dc086402ce9f7 upstream.

ata_link_online() check in ahci_error_intr() is unnecessary, it should
be removed otherwise may lead to lockup with FBS enabled PMP.
