This I believe completes the PIIX range of support for libata

This adds the table entries needed for the PIIX3, both a new PCI
identifier and a new mode list. It also fixes an erroneous access to PCI
configuration 0x48 on non UDMA capable chips.

Works fine here on a 430HX box (ASUS T2P4).
I'm appending kernel messages for boots with the IDE driver and
with the updated libata driver, in case you want to compare them.

I did notice that ata_piix identified the disk as
"QUANTUM FIREBALL A5U." when IDE correctly identified it as
"QUANTUM FIREBALL CR8.4A".

I believe libata truncates the ATA device ID string to fit the max allowable for SCSI. The A5U. part is presumably the drive's firmware revision.
