Embedding struct ata_ioports into struct ide_port saves us an allocation.
Making it available to client drivers is necessary to give them access
to struct ata_port which is needed in the next patch.

To get persistent devicenames under /dev/ allow to set the
devicename from the driver instead of using "ata" unconditionally.

We need ata_id_has_lba48() in another C file, so move
the ATA_ID_* stuff to include/ata_drive.h like in the Linux
Kernel.

ata device usually take a long time to spin up, so it makes sense
to only spend this time when the device is actually used.
This adds a logical ata device and attaches a 'probe' parameter
to it, similar to what MMC does.

Currently we only support oldschool IDE SFF devices. This is done
by registering a register layout struct and everything else is done
by the generic IDE SFF driver. Since modern ATA devices still use
ATA, but not the SFF interface anymore, split out the IDE SFF support
to a separate file to allow for other types of ata interfaces.

This changed patch removes more of the u-boot like code and replace it with
kernel like code.
