Use ata_pad_{alloc,free} in two drivers, to factor out common code.
Add ata_pad_{alloc,free} to two other drivers, which needed the padding
but had not been updated.
The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two
purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion
function, and indicate an error. On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter
is often implicit in the former. On more modern hardware, the driver
often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an
indication that something went wrong.
Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat
arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a
mask of possible error classes.
This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.
Jeff found an endian bug in the Marvell driver (thanks!). Here's the
fix for it.

This should fix up lockups that people were seeing due to
improper spinlock placement. Also, the start/stop DMA routines put
guarded trust in the cached state of DMA.
