2/2: change the last state of pio read to HSM_ST_IDLE

For ATA, there are two levels of mechanism available to turn irq on/off.
- device level: nIEN bit in the control register. This masks INTRQ from the
device.
- host adapter level: some controller can mask out per-port irq from the host
adapter.
Currently various parts of libata deal with irq

Patch 2/10:
Currently there is -irq_on but no -irq_off.
Turning irq off is done via altering the nIEN bit of qc-tf, together with

This patch changes polling codes to use freeze()/thaw() for irq off/on.
The reason is: some ATAPI devices raises INTRQ even of nIEN = 1.
Using the host adapter irq mask mechanism, if available, is more reliable than
