libata: use PIO for non-16 byte aligned ATAPI commands

Browse source 
The IDE driver used DMA for ATAPI commands if READ/WRITE command is
multiple of sector size or sg command is multiple of 16 bytes.  For
libata, READ/WRITE sector alignment is guaranteed by the high level
driver (sr), so we only have to worry about the 16 byte alignment.

This patch makes ata_check_atapi_dma() always request PIO for all data
transfer commands which are not multiple of 16 bytes.

The following reports are related to this problem.

Albert first pointed out the difference between IDE and libata.  Kudos
to him.
