When enabling IRQ, ap->ops->irq_on is checked.
Because most drivers can use ata_irq_on() as is, this
patch allows ap->ops->irq_on to be NULL.
If it is NULL, ata_irq_on() are used.
I believe you can now remove the if(ap->ioaddr.ctl_addr) check as any
device lacking a ctl_addr can now provide an irq_on() method using your
changes.
You've fixed the FIXME

Agreed.
Abstracting out the Control/Alt-Status register block operations has
been a long-standing TODO that I knew would be required, sometime down
the line. I certainly support adding such abstractions, as they are
required for several non-x86 IDE drivers, not just Cell.
