The IDE driver uses a semaphore as mutex.
Use the mutex API instead of the (binary) semaphore.

Since ide_dma_timeout() method's result is discarded, make it return 'void'.
While at it, drop 'ide_' from the method's name, drop the '__' prefix from
the default method's name, and do some cleanups in this method driver-wise:
- in ide-dma.c, au1xxx-ide.c, and pdc202xx_old.c, define/use 'hwif' variable;
- in au1xxx-ide.c, get rid of commented out printk();
- in sl82c105.c, get rid of unnecessary variables.

Since ide_dma_lostirq() method's result is discarded, make it return 'void'.
While at it, rename the method to dma_lost_irq(), drop the '__' prefix from the
default method's name, and do some cleanups in this method driver-wise:
- in aec62xx.c, rename the method in accordance with other drivers, and get rid
of unnecessary variables there;
- in pdc202xx_old.c, define/use 'hwif' variable;
- in sgiioc4.c, rearrange the code to call the resetproc() method directly.

Switch the driver to always program DMA/PIO timings and set device transfer
mode instead of trusting BIOS on CSB6 controllers (libata pata_serverworks.c
driver is also doing things this way and there were no problems reported so
far). While doing conversion I noticed that the old code had many issues:
* the code was assuming that hwif->dma_status is always valid
(which obviously isn't true if hwif->dma_base == NULL)
* value of "(ultra_timing >> (4*unit)) & ~(0xF0)" expression wasn't checked
to fit into udma_modes[5]
* code validating DMA timings didn't validate corresponding PIO timings
* extra CSB5 PIO register wasn't validated et all
* hwif->ide_dma_off_quietly() is always called before ide_set_dma() (which in
turn calls hwif->speedproc() method - svwks_tune_chipset() in this case)
so the code depending on DMA capable bit of DMA status to be set was never
executed (=> the code was never validating DMA timings despite actually
enabling DMA if the PIO timings were OK!)
* on resume driver dependend entirely on BIOS to restore timings and set
transfer mode on the device
While at it:
There is no need to read PIO/MWDMA timings now so don't do it.

the Linux scheduler is starving a number of workloads. So default
to more agressive idle-balancing. This hurts lmbench context-switching
numbers (which was the main reason we sucked at idle-balancing for
such a long time) but the lmbench numbers are fine once the system is
minimally utilized.

this change switches over the scheduler core to CFS's modular

Linux's scheduling policies.
