Resubmit of IDE-probing-patch. It now checks hwif->drives[unit].present instead of
forced_geom and there is also an if-statement so it doesn't change back to the master
unless it have to. I choose to put it inside the if-statement that checks the return
code from ide_wait_not_busy, since it shouldn't revert back to the master drive unless
something is wrong and we have to leave the function. (I also left the old SELECT_DRIVE
after the for-loop so that we will select the master if everything is ok.) Inside the
if-statement or not makes not big difference until you get more than two drives on the
ide-bus...but this code should be ready for it. :)
