libata: initialize qc->dma_dir to DMA_NONE
libata didn't used to init qc->dma_dir to any specific value on qc initialization and command translation path didn't set qc->dma_dir if the command doesn't need data transfer. This made non-data commands to have random qc->dma_dir. This usually doesn't cause problem because LLDs usually check qc->protocol first and look at qc->dma_dir iff the command needs data transfer but this doesn't hold for all LLDs. It might be worthwhile to rename qc->dma_dir to qc->data_dir as we use the field to tag data direction for both PIO and DMA protocols. This problem has been spotted by James Bottomley.
