The way AHCIPortHandler held AHCIPorts and even provided them with
physical pages for the ATA identify buffer just felt wrong.
To fix this, AHCIPortHandler is not a ref-counted object anymore. This
solves the big part of the problem, because AHCIPorts can't hold a
reference to this object anymore, only the AHCIController can do that.
Then, most of the responsibilities are shifted to the AHCIController,
making the AHCIPortHandler a handler of port interrupts only.
The AHCI code is not very good at OOM conditions, so this is a first
step towards OOM correctness. We should not allocate things inside C++
constructors because we can't catch OOM failures, so most allocation
code inside constructors is exported to a different function.
Also, don't use a HashMap for holding RefPtr of AHCIPort objects in
AHCIPortHandler because this structure is not very OOM-friendly. Instead
use a fixed Array of 32 RefPtrs, as at most we can have 32 AHCI ports
per AHCI controller.
Like what happened with the PCI and USB code, this feels like the right
thing to do because we can improve on the ATA capabilities and keep it
distinguished from the rest of the subsystem.
