ioat(4): Use memory completion rather than device register

The CHANSTS register is a split 64-bit register on CBDMA units before
hardware v3.3.  If a torn read happens during ioat_process_events(),
software cannot know when to stop completing descriptors correctly.

So, just use the device-pushed main memory channel status instead.

Remove the ioat_get_active() seatbelt as well.  It does nothing if the
completion address is valid.
