Sorry for breaking the hol[l]y powerpc platform. ;)

...could you also fix the root source of the problem so the similar issue
won't re-appear in the future?
<linux/ide.h> is IDE subsystem specific in the same way that <linux/libata.h>
is libata specific, <linux/ata.h> is the place to put subsystem independent
defines, inlines and co.
There are some powerpc abusers of the above rule but they should at least cover
references to <linux/ide.h> and IDE subsystem specific code with #ifdef/#endif
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE.
In arch/powerpc/platforms/embedded6xx/holly.c case it seems that <linux/ide.h>
include is actually not needed and may be just removed?
