[libata] sata_mv: cache frequently-accessed registers
Maintain a local (mv_port_priv) cache of frequently accessed registers, to avoid having to re-read them (very slow) on every transistion between EDMA and non-EDMA modes. This speeds up things like flushing the drive write cache, and anything using basic DMA transfers. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <mlord@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
