This patch defines new BITFIELDx macros to clean up the #ifdef mess with bitfields, and starts the conversion off with the IDE/ATAPI files.

I think it may be more reliable to talk to gcc people about adding -fprohibit-bitfields to the compiler and eradicate bitfields from the kernel as such. If I was the benevolent dictator, that is what I would have done (consider yourself fortunate I'm not :-)
