[libata] EH: freeze port before aborting commands

Call the ->freeze() hook before aborting qc's, because some hardware
requires special handling prior to accessing the taskfile registers
(for diagnosis/analysis/reset).  Most notably, hardware may wish to
disable the DMA engine or interrupts in the ->freeze() hook.
