ioat3: xor support
ioat3.2 adds xor offload support for up to 8 sources. It can also
perform an xor-zero-sum operation to validate whether all given sources
sum to zero, without writing to a destination. Xor descriptors differ
from memcpy in that one operation may require multiple descriptors
depending on the number of sources. When the number of sources exceeds
5 an extended descriptor is needed. These descriptors need to be
accounted for when updating the DMA_COUNT register.
