Good. I have long ago noticed that DMA is started too early in ide-floppy
which is known to cobfuse some chips (like PDC20246) and was going to do a
patch at first but the lack of hardware (and time) stopped me...
so the Status Register and the Interrupt Reason Register
are checked first.

May be too early still... ide-cd does this after writing the command packet.
