ahci: switch from 'threaded' to 'hardirq' interrupt handling

Browse source 
For high frequency I/O the overhead of threaded interrupts impacts
performance.  A quick out-of-the-box test (i.e. no affinity tuning)
shows ~10% random read performance at ~20% less cpu.  The cpu wins
appear to be from reduced lock contention.
