[libata] change master/slave IDENTIFY order 

2.6.21-rc has horrible problems with libata and PATA cable types (and
thus speeds). This occurs because Tejun fixed a pile of other bugs and
we now do cable detect enforcement for drive side detection properly.

Unfortunately we don't do the process around cable detection right. Tejun
identified the problem and pointed to the right Annex in the spec, this patch
implements the needed changes.

The basic requirement is that we have to identify the slave before the
master.

The patch switches the identify order so that we can do the drive side
detection correctly.
