sata_mv wait for empty+idle

When performing EH, it is recommended to wait for the EDMA engine
to empty out requests-in-progress before disabling EDMA.

Introduce code to poll the EDMA_STATUS register for idle/empty bits
before disabling EDMA.  For non-EH operation, this will normally exit
without delay, other than the register read.

A later series of patches may focus on eliminating this and various
other register reads (when possible) throughout the driver,
but for now we're focussing on solid reliablity.
