sata_sil24: fix IRQ clearing race when PCIX_IRQ_WOC is used

When PCIX_IRQ_WOC is used, sil24 has an inherent race condition
between clearing IRQ pending and reading IRQ status.  If IRQ pending
is cleared after reading IRQ status, there's possibility of lost IRQ.
If IRQ pending is cleared before reading IRQ status, spurious IRQs
will occur.

sata_sil24 till now cleared IRQ pending after reading IRQ status thus
losing IRQs on machines where PCIX_IRQ_WOC was used.  Reverse the
order and ignore spurious IRQs if PCIX_IRQ_WOC.
