    libata: Support PIO polling-only hosts.
    
    By default ata_host_activate() expects a valid IRQ in order to
    successfully register the host. This patch enables a special case
    for registering polling-only hosts that either don't have IRQs
    or have buggy IRQ generation (either in terms of handling or
    sensing), which otherwise work fine.
    
    Hosts that want to use polling mode can simply set ATA_FLAG_PIO_POLLING
    and pass in an invalid IRQ.
