[PATCHv2] macio: handle non-block ATAPI DMA transfers the same as block DMA transfers

The existing code incorrectly changes the dma_active flag when a non-block
transfer has completed leading to a hang on newer versions of Linux because the
IDE and DMA engines deadlock waiting for each other.

Instead copy the buffer directly to RAM, set the remaining transfer size to 0 and
then invoke the ATAPI callback manually once again to correctly finish the
transfer in an identical manner to a block transfer.

Thanks for the patch, it improves things here. I don't get messages
anymore, and I get less messages when mounting the CD-ROM, though I
still get one:

The CD-ROM is fully functional though.

Hmmmm yes I can recreate that here - must be another transition between
the non-block and the block transfer code (I was working on eliminating
the boot messages) caused by reading the disc metadata upon mount.
Unfortunately I don't have much time to work on this right now so maybe
it's a 2.4.1/2.5 thing unless John can take a look?


ATB,

Mark.

Definitely a 2.4.1/2.5 thing anyway at this time. If you prepare a v3 to
nail down the last state transition error message you're seeing, just CC
stable as well, and I'll handle it for 2.5.
