This matters for some controllers and in one or two cases almost doubles
PIO performance. Add a bmdma32 operations set we can inherit and activate
it for some controllers

This can likely be enabled for more controllers (presumably all the SFF-based SATA controllers as well as any other PATA that couldn't be on a physical ISA bus). This is a start though.

Don't some of the VLB controller drivers have their own private 32-bit PIO implementation? Those should likely be updated to use this support.
