Part one of simplifying/fixing handling of the main_irq_mask register
to resolve unexpected interrupt issues observed in 2.6.26-rc*.
Don't blindly enable port IRQs at host init time.
Instead, enable only the bits that we want,
which in this case is simply the PCI_ERR bit.
The per-port bits can wait until the ports are reset/probed for devices.

Two process notes for future use:
1) please include a colon (":") or other punctuation after "sata_mv"
prefix in subject line.
2) when adding notes like "These five small patches...", we already have
a method of doing so: the "---" separator. The format of the patch
body should be:
patch description for kernel changelog

These five small patches are on top of the four previously
posted, so I'm extending the numbering to be xx/09 now.
Both of these details are documented in Documentation/SubmittingPatches
and http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html
OTOH, your numbering behavior -- extending the patch numbering as you've
done here, when the first patchset is not yet applied to git -- is quite
useful and should be emulated by others :)
Tejun sometimes simply posts a new patchseries, noting that that
patchseries is dependent upon a previous series. That's fine, too.
Thanks,
Jeff
