Recent changes:
* New sata_qstor driver.

* Turn on ATAPI by default.

callbacks instead.  Should have been this way originally.

* Most of C/H/S support.

* Fix bugs in ADMA driver.

* Support PCI MSI in AHCI driver.
* Support ATAPI in AHCI driver.

* Improve ATA passthru (a.k.a. SMART) support
How is the Marvell driver coming along? Did it stall? :-)

The propetiary source driver works, but its not like its universally 
available (I had to grab it from a different vendor..), "guaranteed" to 
work with future kernels, have a usable license, and so on.
