[PATCH 0/5] qemu: IDE/ATAPI emulation reliability fixes

[Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon <carenas-kLeDWSohozoJb6fo7hG9ng@public.gmane.org>]

The following patch series implements fixes to the IDE/ATAPI emulation
in qemu which are already committed upstream or proposed for inclusion; 
including 2 serious regressions that result in availability and data loss
problems when using OpenSolaris or FreeBSD guests (at least) by the first 2:

  Patch 1/5 : fixes GET_CONFIGURATION to allow OpenSolaris cdrom access 
  Patch 2/5 : fixes IDE sector write operations resulting in data lost
  Patch 3/5 : enables ACPI interrupts
  Patch 4/5 : uses DVD-ROM as model name for INQUIRY and IDENTIFY DEVICE
  Patch 5/5 : removes obsolete triton chip support

They had been tested in Gentoo Linux 2007.0 amd64 using an Intel Core 2
6320 host and several different versions of FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Linux,
OpenSolaris and Windows 2000 guests
