The current ide-pmac upstream is broken. It calls
media_bay_set_ide_infos() with an uninitialized "hwif" argument.
It's not a trivial mistake, there's a chicken-and-egg problem in the
init code in there.
I've locally fixed it with this patch that i'll merge via the powerpc
tree unless you have an objection.
However, the machine crashes when removing the media-bay CD-ROM drive.
Crash appears to be a NULL deref, possibly in elv_may_queue() though
I don't have a clean backtrace yet, working on it...
Cheers,
Ben.
