This patch enables device-tree-based probing of the pata-generic
platform driver across all architectures:

  * make the pata_of_generic module depend on OF instead of PPC_OF;
  * supply some missing inclues;
  * replace endianness-sensitive raw access to device tree data
    with of_property_read_u32() calls.

Tested on ARM Versatile Express, with my soon-to-be-posted device
tree support patches.
This may not be the correct way to support the CF slot on Versatile
Express - it depends whether the CF slot on VE supports just CF
memory cards or whether it can take any CF card.

If the latter, then what may be inserted could be a CF network card,
and that means it's probably wrong to tell the kernel that what's
there is a PATA interface.
