sunxi: backport increased SATA/AHCI DMA TX/RX FIFOs

This backports SATA performance boost from 5.3 kernel:

 Increasing the SATA/AHCI DMA TX/RX FIFOs (P0DMACR.TXTS and .RXTS, ie.
 TX_TRANSACTION_SIZE and RX_TRANSACTION_SIZE) from default 0x0 each to
 0x3 each, gives a write performance boost of 120 MiB/s to 132 MiB/s from
 lame 36 MiB/s to 45 MiB/s previously.  Read performance is above 200
 MiB/s. [tested on SSD using dd bs=4K/8K/12K/16K/20K/24K/32K: peak-perf
 at 12K]

 dd bs  Before MB/s  After MB/s  Increase
 4k            14.4        16.5       15%
 64k           34.5        74.4      116%
 1M            40.5        93.2      130%

+Subject: [PATCH] drivers: ata: ahci_sunxi: Increased SATA/AHCI DMA TX/RX FIFOs
+
+Increasing the SATA/AHCI DMA TX/RX FIFOs (P0DMACR.TXTS and .RXTS, ie.
+TX_TRANSACTION_SIZE and RX_TRANSACTION_SIZE) from default 0x0 each
+to 0x3 each, gives a write performance boost of 120 MiB/s to 132 MiB/s
+from lame 36 MiB/s to 45 MiB/s previously.
+Read performance is above 200 MiB/s.
+[tested on SSD using dd bs=4K/8K/12K/16K/20K/24K/32K: peak-perf at 12K]
+
+Tested on the SBCs Banana Pi R1 (aka Lamobo R1) and Banana Pi M1 which
+are based on the Allwinner A20 32bit-SoC (ARMv7-a / arm-linux-gnueabihf).
+These devices are RaspberryPi-like small devices.
+
+This problem of slow SATA write-speed with these small devices lasts
+for about 7 years now (beginning with the A10 SoC). Many commentators
+throughout the years wrongly assumed the slow write speed was a
+hardware limitation. This patch finally solves the problem, which
+in fact was just a hard-to-find software problem due to lack of
+SATA/AHCI documentation by the SoC-maker Allwinner Technology.
+
+Lists of the affected sunxi and other boards and SoCs with SATA using
+the ahci_sunxi driver:
+  $ grep -i -e "^&ahci" arch/arm/boot/dts/sun*dts
+  and http://linux-sunxi.org/SATA#Devices_with_SATA_ports
