Some device require DMADIR to be enabled, but are not detected as such by atapi_id_dmadir. One such example is "Asus Serillel 2" SATA-host-to-PATA-device bridge: the bridge itself requires DMADIR, even if the bridged device does not. As atapi_dmadir module parameter can cause problems with some devices (as per Tejun Heo's memory), enabling it globally may not be possible depending on the hardware. This patch adds atapi_dmadir in the form of a "force" horkage value, allowing global, per-bus and per-device control.
