CONFIG_BLK_DEV_4DRIVES deserves its own host driver:
* Add drivers/ide/legacy/ide-4drives.c and move "4drives" support there.
* Add ide-4drives.o in the link order after all other legacy host
drivers enabled by "ide0=" options (they all are mutually exclusive).
* Make ide-4drives host driver probe itself for IDE devices instead of
indirectly depending on ide_generic host driver.
* Add "probe" module parameter to ide-4drives and update documentation.

Certain older chipsets, including the Tekram 690CD, use a single set

customary two drives per port. Support for this can be enabled at
