[patch] GNUMach 1.3 DMA Support

[Sergio López]

Hello,

Linux developers discover some time ago, that the triton.c driver is
standard enough to be used with non-Intel controllers for DMA support.
This patch does the following:

- Updates triton.c and hdreg.h to linux-2.0.40, for better support of
ALi controllers.

- Includes new PCIIDs (of known supported controllers) in ide.c

- Adds the flag "--enable-forcedma" to configure. The function
"config_drive_for_dma" of triton.c seems to be a bit old, and doesn't
detect DMA on drives that support it. This flag ignores this detection.
Enabling this could be dangerous for non-DMA or very rare drives.

Also, I'm sure that many modern controllers can work with the triton
driver, but their PCIIDs aren't included in ide.c.


P.D: Please excuse my bad english :)
