Update the assignment of various physical memory buffers used by the SATA controller to explicitly be denoted as physical addresses. The memory is identity-mapped, so these function calls are a nop, but they provide good semantic documentation for any maintainers. The return value of virt_to_phys() is 'unsigned long'. On machines where sizeof(unsigned long) != sizeof(pointer), a cast through (uintptr_t) is needed to appease the compiler due to the potential of losing the upper 32 bits of the address. In compilation this scenario, a physical address could be 64-bits, yet the C pointer environment only allows 32-bit addresses; the constraint is that pointers cannot address more than 4Gb of memory and if virt_to_phys() ever returns an out-of-range value for the physical address, there are issues with emmory mapping which must be solved. However, since the memory is identify mappeed, there is no problem introducing the cast: the original pointer will reside in 32-bits, so the physical address will also be within in 32-bits.
