[PATCH 1/1] ide: Allow disabling of UDMA for Compact Flash devices

["James Ausmus" <james.ausmus@gmail.com>]

Some IDE -> Compact Flash media adapters are not capable of supporting
UDMA, which can cause very slow boot times when the CF media itself
reports as capable of UDMA transfer speeds. Create Kconfig option to
turn off the UDMA capability bit when media is identified as Compact
Flash.
