Re: IDE driver in polling mode

Doesn't libata have to do with SCSI devices? I'm afraid it wouldn't
work with CF, which is P-ATA compatible.

Wouldn't it work just to call ide_intr() explicitly from some polling
function, as Mark suggested?

Obvious thing to do would be to do this if the IRQ number passed in is 0
rather than aborting as we do now. In theory ISAPnP devices may be
IRQless too.
