b96e4c1308 Kernel/Storage: Use more locking in the IDE code
This change should make it less possible for race conditions to happen
and cause fatal errors when accessing the hardware.

8b446fb579 Kernel/Storage: Add support for non-bus mastering IDE controllers
Although unlikely to happen, a user can have an IDE controller that
doesn't support bus master capability. If that's the case, we need to
check for this, and create an IDEChannel (not BMIDEChannel) to allow
IO operations with the controller.

833a6bd047 Kernel/Storage: Move IDE bus master handling code into a separate class
If the user requests to force PIO mode, we just create IDEChannel
objects which are capable of sending PIO commands only.
However, if the user doesn't force PIO mode, we create BMIDEChannel
objects, which are sending DMA commands.

This change is somewhat simplifying the code, so each class is
supporting its type of operation - PIO or DMA. The PATADiskDevice
should not care if DMA is enabled or not.

Later on, we could write an IDEChannel class for UDMA modes,
that are available and documented on Intel specifications for their IDE
controllers.
