libata-sff: avoid byte swapping in ata_sff_data_xfer() 

Handling of the trailing byte in ata_sff_data_xfer() is suboptimal bacause:

- it always initializes the padding buffer to 0 which is not really needed in
  both the read and write cases;

- it has to use memcpy() to transfer a single byte from/to the padding buffer;

- it uses io{read|write}16() accessors which swap bytes on the big endian CPUs
  and so have to additionally convert the data from/to the little endian format
  instead of using io{read|write}16_rep() accessors which are not supposed to
  change the byte ordering.
