sata_mv: don't issue two DMA commands concurrently
sata_mv allowed issuing two DMA commands concurrently which the hardware allows. Unfortunately, libata core layer isn't ready for this yet and spews ugly warning message and malfunctions on this. Don't allow concurrent DMA commands for now. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
