Implement HDIO_GET_IDENTITY such that at least 'hdparm -i' works.

This patch is not necessary -- The SG_IO/ATA16 support patches replace it.
I believe Tejun and I were in agreement that proper
ATA16 support for ATAPI was the better way to go.
I like both approaches. I think direct support of HDIO_GET_IDENTITY can
reduce the number of failure points, while making old tools work a bit
better.
I'll regenerate that one last (boot/modparm) patch
that failed on upstream for you -- later this week.
Thanks,
Jeff
