fix a problem that ata port print_id is used uninitialized.

port print_id is initialized in ata_host_register, but it's
used in ata_host_start.
Now move it to ata_host_start, before it's invoked for the first time.

The idea was to assign print_id after the port is pretty much
guaranteed to be registered successfully but doing it earlier
shouldn't harm anything really.  So,
