according to acs-2 ยง7.19.6 p. 163, this is illegal, but i got
a $20 dvd-rom that doesn't have a serial number. this
doesn't sit well with 9load. here's a workaround for the
broken hardware:
sdiahci.c:1711,1717 - /n/dump/2009/0224/sys/src/boot/pc/sdiahci.c:1711,1716
d->portno = i;
d->driveno = -1;
d->sectors = 0;
- d->serial[0] = ' ';
d->ctlr = c;
if((c->hba->pi & (1<<i)) == 0)
continue;
acs-2 is the draft follow-on standard to ata-8.
i put this and a similar fix the kernel on sources.

/n/sources/contrib/quanstro/src/9/pc/sdiahci.c (requires ../*/sd* and
../port/fis*, too)
