Shannon Nelson 7bb67c14fd I/OAT: Add support for version 2 of ioatdma device
Add support for version 2 of the ioatdma device.  This device handles
the descriptor chain and DCA services slightly differently:
 - Instead of moving the dma descriptors between a busy and an idle chain,
   this new version uses a single circular chain so that we don't have
   rewrite the next_descriptor pointers as we add new requests, and the
   device doesn't need to re-read the last descriptor.
 - The new device has the DCA tags defined internally instead of needing
   them defined statically.
