    Association of IORDY with DMA mode is wrong.

    Yeah, especially if we also set the bit which only enables fast timing for 
DMA. ;-)
    PIO mode is setup by different code, and it takes care of the IORDY 
setting according to the PIO rules (and it gets called). DMA mode setup should 
just ignore the IORDY setting as in all other sane drivers.
