ht6560b: force prefetch for some devices
Prefetch needs to be set for some ide devices to work when connected to a ht6560b interface. This was not always done properly, causing a system with a HD and CD on the primary interface to not work properly. Or, in effect, hang hard. This patch forces prefetch on devices before checking whether it is necessary to change the settings in the interface This patch should also be applied to 2.4. I don't currently have a 2.4 tree around.
