    sys/boot/i386/libi386 biosdisk.c 
  Log:
  Rework the read/write support in the bios disk driver some to cut down
  on duplicated code and support 64-bit LBAs for GPT.
  - The code to manage an EDD or C/H/S I/O request are now in their own
    routines.  The EDD routine now handles a full 64-bit LBA instead of
    truncating LBAs to the lower 32-bits.  (MBRs and BSD labels only
    have 32-bit LBAs anyway, so the only LBAs ever passed down were 32-bit).
  - All of the bounce buffer and retry logic duplicated in bd_read() and
    bd_write() are merged into a single bd_io() routine that takes an
    extra direction argument.  bd_read() and bd_write() are now simple
    wrappers around bd_io().
  - If a disk supports EDD then always use it rather than only using it if
    the cylinder is > 1023.  Other parts of the boot code already do
    something similar to this.  Also, GPT just uses LBAs, so for a GPT disk
    it's probably best to ignore C/H/S completely.  Always using EDD when
    it is supported by a disk is an easy way to accomplish this.
