   It's probably too late to object now (and I've been busy before) but I 
don't understand how reading DMA status ended up here ISO ide-dma.c...

   I also didn't understand the motivation behind putting this method 
together with the transport operations... IMO, DMA programming interface 
hardly has anything to do with transporting the data over IDE bus.
