This patch isn't really needed, but it might provide an "out"
just in case somebody has some really non-compliant hardware
out there someday.

Add a boot/module parameter for libata to force the ATA_16
SCSI opcode to not be interpreted as a standards-compliant
ATA passthrough mechanism when used on an ATAPI device
 -- instead, it gets passed directly to the ATAPI device.

This version of the patch leaves ATA_16 enabled for non-ATAPI
regardless of the setting of the new module parm.  Take your pick.

ACK this version of the patch, but it does not apply to #upstream...
