Hi,

When an error is detected by ata.mod during drive scan, it will pass it to
the upper layer.  This results in GRUB aborting when trying to enter normal
mode, even if the error is not critical (e.g. affects a drive not used during
boot).

There are a number of places in ata.mod where these errors could be handled,
so I'm not sure if my proposed change would be the best approach.  Some comment
would be appreciated.
