I'd like to know whether it is possible to use IDE driver (ide-disk)
in polling mode, instead of using IRQ.
This should be doable, with a small amount of hacking.
Mostly, you just need to use add_timer() to set up a polling
function that simply calls ide_intr() and then does add_timer()
again for the next poll.
For your purposes, it could be as simple as five lines of C.
