Grab the latest ICH5 docs from developer.intel.com, they say the same 
thing as the ICH6 docs.  Section 5.16.6, "Ultra ATA/33/66/100 Timing":

Patches welcome :)  Slave device is a possibility on ICH6, which maps 4 
SATA ports onto IDE primary/secondary master/slave, when not in evil 
combined mode.

If you are motivated, I need to re-copy the drivers/ide/pci/piix.c 
tune_chipset function to ata_piix.c, because I need to add MWDMA support 
back to that function.
