[PATCH] libata: implement ata_wait_register()
As waiting for some register bits to change seems to be a common
operation shared by some controllers, implement helper function
ata_wait_register(). This function also takes care of register write
flushing.
Note that the condition is inverted, the wait is over when the masked
value does NOT match @val. As we're waiting for bits to change, this
test is more powerful and allows the function to be used in more
places.
