PATCH 1/1 Fix Phase Mismatch Jump handling

Hi,
this is the patch written by Paolo Bonzini to make Windows x64 guests working fine with SCSI using the LSI SCSI controller. There was a buggy implementation of Phase Mismatch handling in QEMU and this is the patch that Paolo sent to upstream QEMU and it seems to be working fine with Win64 drivers.

lsi_bad_phase has a bug in the choice of pmjad1/pmjad2. This does not matter with Linux guests because it uses just one routine for both, but it breaks Windows 64-bit guests. This is the text from the spec:

"[The PMJCTL] bit controls which decision mechanism is used when jumping on phase mismatch. When this bit is cleared the LSI53C895A will use Phase Mismatch Jump Address 1 (PMJAD1) when the WSR bit is cleared and Phase Mismatch Jump Address 2 (PMJAD2) when the WSR bit is set. When this bit is set the LSI53C895A will use jump address one (PMJAD1) on data out (data out, command, message out) transfers and jump address two (PMJAD2) on data in (data in, status, message in) transfers."

Which means:

CCNTL0.PMJCTL
0 SCNTL2.WSR = 0 PMJAD1
0 SCNTL2.WSR = 1 PMJAD2
1 out PMJAD1
1 in PMJAD2

In qemu, what you get instead is:

CCNTL0.PMJCTL
0 out PMJAD1
0 in PMJAD2 <<<<<
1 out PMJAD1
1 in PMJAD1 <<<<<

Considering that qemu always has SCNTL2.WSR cleared, the two marked cases (corresponding to phase mismatch on input) are always jumping to the wrong PMJAD register. The patch implements the correct semantics.
