This mostly consists of functionality to serialize accesses to
the two ATA channels (which can also be used to "fix" certain
PCI based controllers).
Add support for Acard controllers.
Enable the ATA driver in PC98 GENERIC, and add device hints.
Update man page with latest support.
The PC98 core team has kindly provided me with a PC98
machine that made this all possible, thanks to all that
contributed to that effort, without that this would
probably newer have been possible..

don't take the detour over the I/O path to discover them using getattr(),
we can just pick them out directly.
Do note though, that for now they are only valid after the first open
of the underlying disk device due compatibility with the old disk_create()
API. This will change in the future so they will always be valid.

with support for trying, doing and forcing.
This will eventually replace g_slice_addslice() which gets changed from
grabbing topology to requing it in this commit as well.

I have not been able to find very much information about the PC98
extended partition layout so this is gleaned from the source in
our pc98 architecture. Corrections and patched very welcome.
