AMD CIMx SB800: Enable AHCI mode for SATA controller by default
The current default is IDE mode which is slower compared to AHCI mode. Therefore use AHCI mode by default.
A similar change was made for AMD Persimmon in commit »Enable SATA AHCI for faster boot with SeaBIOS.« (96be74c7) [1] but was indirectly reverted by »sb800: Add sata ahci/raid mode kconfig option« (d4a0e7d0) [2].
