Jens Axboe pointed out that the iounmap() call in libata was occurring
too early, and some drivers (ahci, probably others) were using ioremap'd
memory after it had been unmapped.
The patch should address that problem by way of improving the libata
driver API:
* move ->host_stop() call after all ->port_stop() calls have occurred.
* create default helper function ata_host_stop(), and move iounmap()
call there.
* add ->host_stop_prewalk() hook, use it in sata_qstor.c (hi Mark).
sata_qstor appears to require the host-stop-before-port-stop ordering
that existed prior to applying the attached patch.
BCM5785 (HT1000) is a new southbridge from Serverworks/Broadcom that
incorporates 4 SATA ports in a single PCIX function. Functionally these
ports are similar to that in older devices like the Apple K2 and the
Frodo4/8. This patch adds support for the new PCI device ID along with a
blurb on what the various device IDs mean. Additionally in all devices
based on this SATA controller, the SATA ports appear as a single PCI
function. This is true for older Frodo8 devices as well. Hence the init
function should init all the ports present in the detected controller
(which could be 4 or 8).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
