[PATCH] ide: rework the code for selecting the best DMA transfer mode

Here's another portion of comments...

Depends on the "ide: fix UDMA/MWDMA/SWDMA masks" patch.

* add ide_hwif_t.filter_udma_mask hook for filtering UDMA mask

Erm, maybe a shorter method name like udma_filter would go with the others better. But well, that's my taste. :-)

(use it in alim15x3, hpt366, siimage and serverworks drivers)
* add ide_max_dma_mode() for finding best DMA mode for the device
(loosely based on some older libata-core.c code)
* convert ide_dma_speed() users to use ide_max_dma_mode()
* make ide_rate_filter() take "ide_drive_t *drive" as an argument instead
of "u8 mode" and teach it to how to use UDMA mask to do filtering
* use ide_rate_filter() in hpt366 driver
* remove no longer needed ide_dma_speed() and *_ratemask()
* unexport eighty_ninty_three()

I didn't quite like the array/loop approach but well, that's my taste (I'd
rather put the mode-from-mask evaluation to the function and call it thrice)...

Erm, I see. This driver will need some redesign because 'struct hpt_info' was fitted for the old rate filtering model. Looks like the 'max_mode' field should be replaced by 'ultra_mask' there...

When I think about it, it seems quite stupid to set a PIO mode instead of a requested DMA one. So, this is actually a questionable piece of code in this driver...

Well, I must note the sorrow fact that both the IDE susbsytem as a whole doesn't keep track of PIO/DMA modes separately (having only current_mode) and the many drivers also fail to handle the timing registers shared by PIO/DMA modes correctly (well, it's actually also a hardware design issue :-).

Well, I liked this code where it was. But anyway, it's going to be replaced RSN...

Hm, what was the problem with setting the proper masks based on PCI device ID in the init. code?
That'd have greatly simplified the filter...

Most probably this is doable at init. time also...

do it quick and with least affect. And I certainly may handle hpt366.c redesign... :-)
