Hi all,

Here is the PATA Platform driver using OF infrastructure.

Mostly it's just a wrapper around a bit modified pata_platform
driver.

Patches are well split for the easier review:

First one factors out platform_device specific bits and modifies
pata_platform to be a library-alike driver (with platform_device
default binding).

Second patch is OF-driver itself which is using pata_platform
"library".

Third patch is PowerPC specific, but I'm still Cc'ing linux-ide,
just to show how we're using it.


As an alternative approach we can use plain pata_platform
driver, but I'm not sure how Linux OF bindings' ideologists will
or will not like it.

So, these patches are strongly Request For Comments. Feel free
to train your nitpicking skills ;-), and/or vote for the option
you most pleased about (or suggest another?).

Seems reasonable from a libata point of view...
