ide: fix locking for manual DMA enable/disable ("hdparm -d")
Since hwif->ide_dma_check and hwif->ide_dma_on never queue any commands (ide_config_drive_speed() sets transfer mode using polling and has no error recovery) we are safe with setting hwgroup->busy for the time while DMA setting for a drive is changed (so it won't race against I/O commands in fly). I audited briefly all ->ide_dma_check/->ide_dma_on/->tuneproc/->speedproc implementations and they all look OK wrt to this change. This patch finally allowed me to close kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (once again thanks to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue & testing patches).
