s/timings/data timings/ [ though it should be obvious from the context ]

Sorry but this confuses taskfile timings (which are always PIO mode based
timings) with data timings (the removed code deals with the latter only)..

also please refer to ata_timings[] in drivers/ata/libata-core.c
(columns 3, 4 and 5 are the ones to look at):

static const struct ata_timing ata_timing[] = {
