SubjectRe: Abit HPT 366 UDMA controller configuration

I just now got a better design on the code, and have not back ported it
yet. I have to rework it because it failed to compile in 2.3.17-1, gad.

I have found that the ABit design has a variation that is not present in
the original prototype design. I got a SIX-pack of cards to test from
ABIT, but I am not quite statisfied yet.
