the following warning:
  ahci 0000:00:1f.2: DMA-API: device driver maps memory fromstack [addr=ffff880140469948]

Fix this by using ap->sector_buf instead of a stack buffer.

I'm somewhat ignorant, but it looks like this is kind of thing is what
ap->sector_buf is *for*, right? And in ata_dev_configure() nobody else
is likely to be using it?

yep
