Currently we don't report PIO/DMA information in the case we are using
firmware mode setup by drivers, or where the value is meaningless. Even
when we don't know the mode, or the mode is meaningless it would be nice
to report PIO or DMA and to keep stylistic consistency. For MW/UDMA we
can report the actual firmware set mode and we add a helper for this.

This patch for now is just a proposal for comment

(and while we could guess the PIO mode by playing with the command
registers and timing them I don't think its worth it)

Looks good to me.

Dropped, since you say it's just a proposal
