sata_mv: optimize IRQ coalescing for 8-port chips

Enable use of the "all ports" IRQ coalescing optimization
for GEN_II / GEN_IIE chips that have dual host-controllers (8-ports).
Currently only the 6081 chip qualifies, but other chips may come along someday.

Rather than each half of the chip having to satisfy a local set of coalescing thresholds,
use of this feature groups all ports together under a single set of thresholds.
