ahci: Add support for Cavium's ThunderX host controller
This patch adds support for Cavium's ThunderX host controller. The controller resides on the SoC and is a AHCI compatible SATA controller with one port, compliant with Serial ATA 3.1 and AHCI Revision 1.31. There can exists multiple SATA controllers on the SoC. The controller depends on MSI-X support since the PCI ECAM controller on the SoC does not implement MSI nor lagacy intx interrupt support. Thus, during device initialization, if MSI fails MSI-X will be used to enable the device's interrupts. The controller uses non-standard BAR0 for its register range. The already existing device lookup (vendor and device id) that is already implemented for other host controllers is used to change the PCI BAR.
