Update: SATAPI works on first-generation chips, but only in PIO mode.

To verify that DMA doesn't work I also tried Promise's pdc-ultra
driver for their first-generation chips. It doesn't want to support
ATAPI without an explicit option. Enabling that option makes it
recognise ATAPI devices, but even a simple "eject" command triggers
command timeouts and eventually a kernel oops due to the NMI watchdog.
So I'm fairly sure that DMA simply doesn't work.

This patch enables ATAPI on 20319 and 2037x chips, but forces SATA
ports to always use PIO. As a side-effect, ATAPI support is now free
of any dependencies on the #promise-sata-pata branch.
