Subject: [PATCH 3.10 062/129] libata: Add atapi_dmadir force flag

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vincent Pelletier <plr.vincent@...il.com>

commit 966fbe193f47c68e70a80ec9991098e88e7959cb upstream.

Some device require DMADIR to be enabled, but are not detected as such
by atapi_id_dmadir.  One such example is "Asus Serillel 2"
SATA-host-to-PATA-device bridge: the bridge itself requires DMADIR,
even if the bridged device does not.

As atapi_dmadir module parameter can cause problems with some devices
(as per Tejun Heo's memory), enabling it globally may not be possible
depending on the hardware.

This patch adds atapi_dmadir in the form of a "force" horkage value,
allowing global, per-bus and per-device control.
