This is the core portion of the async I/O interface.

Removed data_in_len and data_out_len from ata_command structure; the
lengths are implied by the sector count and the presence of the data_in
or data_out pointers.

Changed AoE code to use subcommands by default, and made aoe_issue()
nonblocking (with completion via async_wait()).

  Cannot yet handle reads of more than two sectors

  No retransmission

  No way to find out a target's MAC address (this proof of concept uses
  broadcasts)

These limitations shall not last long!  :)

Yes, you really can do it in 65 bytes.
