99ef98d0bf ATA devices are now asynchronous. The ATA layer itself now performs the
async_wait(), though we may wish to move this higher up the stack, and
consider making the block device model asynchronous.  (There is only a
marginal cost for synchronous devices, since they can simply call
async_done() before returning; async_wait() will work seamlessly in this
situation).

68125bc441 Added generic asynchronous operations code.
Removed data_in_len and data_out_len from ata_command structure; the
lengths are implied by the sector count and the presence of the data_in
or data_out pointers.

Changed AoE code to use subcommands by default, and made aoe_issue()
nonblocking (with completion via async_wait()).

9a2a52693d Initial AoE implementation. Limitations are:
Cannot yet handle reads of more than two sectors

  No retransmission

  No way to find out a target's MAC address (this proof of concept uses
  broadcasts)

These limitations shall not last long!  :)
