Fifth update to the new ATA/ATAPI driver:

Fixed problems:

    Promise controllers always ended up in PIO mode.
	A real braino, fixed.

    Kernel with only ISA bus in it fails to compile.
	The dependency on NPCI was badly placed, fixed.

As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still pre alpha level code.
Especially the DMA support can hose your disk real bad if anything
goes wrong, again you have been warned :)
Notebook owners should be carefull that their machines dont suspend
as this might cause trouble...

But please tell me how it works for you!

Enjoy!

-Søren
