The ACS specification does not allow a non-NCQ command to be issued while
an NCQ command is outstanding.

Commit 0ea84089dbf6 ("ata: libata-scsi: avoid Non-NCQ command starvation")
introduced a feature where a deferred non-NCQ command gets issued from a
workqueue. The design stores a single non-NCQ command per port.

However, when using Port Multipliers (PMPs), specifically PMPs that
support FIS-Based Switching (FBS), non-NCQ and NCQ commands can be mixed
on the same port, just not for the same link, see e.g. ata_std_qc_defer()
which is, and always has operated on a per-link basis.

Therefore, move the deferred_qc from struct ata_port to struct ata_link.
This way, when using a PMP with FBS, we will not needlessly defer commands
to all other links, just because one link issued a non-NCQ command while
having an NCQ command outstanding. Only commands for that specific link
will be deferred. This is in line with how PMPs with FBS worked before
commit 0ea84089dbf6 ("ata: libata-scsi: avoid Non-NCQ command starvation").
