cmd_ide: enhance new feature "CONFIG_IDE_AHB"
Although most IDE controller is designed to be connected to PCI bridge,
there are still some IDE controller support AHB interface for SoC design.
The driver implementation of these IDE-AHB controllers differ from other
IDE-PCI controller, some additional registers and commands access is required
during CMD/DATA I/O. Hence a configuration "CONFIG_IDE_AHB" in cmd_ide.c is
required to be defined to support these kinds of SoC controllers. Such as
Faraday's FTIDE020 series and Global Unichip's UINF-0301.

+- CONFIG_IDE_AHB:
+ Most IDE controllers were designed to be connected with PCI
+ interface. Only few of them were designed for AHB interface.
+ When software is doing ATA command and data transfer to
+ IDE devices through IDE-AHB controller, some additional
+ registers accessing to these kind of IDE-AHB controller
+ is requierd.
