ioatdma: add ioat_raid_enabled module parameter
Commit f26df1a1 added a 64-byte alignment requirement for legacy operations to work around a silicon errata when mixing legacy and RAID descriptors. Passing ioat_raid_enabled=0 now disables RAID offload entirely in the ioatdma driver so that legacy operations (memcpy, etc.) can work without alignment restrictions anymore.
