Ugh... the way those tables are following each other, the driver should be programming MWDMA2 timings instead. :-/

* Add setting transfer mode on the device to pmac_ide_set_pio_mode().

* Fix pmac_ide_set_pio() to always program chipset for given PIO timing instead
  of only when the device we want to program PIO timing for is the currently
  selected one.

   Hm, why this was necessary?
AFAIU, pmac_ide_do_setfeature() will cause selectproc() to be called anyway, via SELECT_DRIVE()...

* Now that pmac_ide_set_pio() is fixed there is no need to set transfer mode
  on the device and program chipset for PIO in pmac_ide_tune_chipset()

BTW, I'm also not seeing much sense in calling pmac_ide_do_update_timings() from there as well since pmac_ide_do_setfeature() is called before that anyway.

  (returning 0 == success is not entirely correct but is OK for now since
  the upper layers are only checking ->speedproc return value for DMA modes).

This patch should have no effect on the default kernel behavior because
IDE pmac driver doesn't enable ->autotune (this would also explain why some
of the above bugs remained unfixed for so long).
