Good. I think it's worth implementing this method in at least
cmd64x.c which actually reads the IDE interrupt latch bits (independent
from the DMA interrupt status) in the dma_test_irq() methods but never
clears them, so the latches may reflect a non-current state of the IDE
interrupt...
It may also be worth considering turning this method into
test-and-clear, so that we can get the actual IDE interrupt state on the
chips that implement this...
