libata: Add a drivers/ide style DMA disable

Browse Source 
This is useful when debugging, handling problem systems, or for
distributions just to get the system installed so it can be sorted
out later.

This is a bit smarter than the old IDE one and lets you do

libata.dma=0	Disable all PATA DMA like old IDE
libata.dma=1	Disk DMA only
libata.dma=2	ATAPI DMA only
libata.dma=4	CF DMA only

(or combinations thereof - 0,1,3 being the useful ones I suspect)

(I've split CF as it seems to be a seperate case of pain and suffering
different to the others and caused by assorted PIO wired adapters etc)
