Add IRQ coalescing to sata_mv (off by default).
This feature can reduce total interrupt overhead for RAID setups
in some situations, by deferring the interrupt signal until one or both of:
a) a specified io_count (completed SATA commands) is achieved, or
b) a specified time interval elapses after an IO completion.
For now, module parameters are used to set the irq_coalescing_io_count
and irq_coalescing_usecs (timeout) globally. These may eventually
be supplemented with sysfs attributes, so that thresholds can be set
on-the-fly and on a per-chip (or even per-host_controller) basis.
