so having a shared library just for it sounds like an overkill and we may
People expect code in C files, so in headers it gets missed as well as
dumped in a directory with no correlation between file name and subsystem.
just copy that one function from pata_legacy to ide_generic instead.
If you are going to #include two copies you might as well just copy it.
That's pretty much my feeling... just copy the code.
If the shared code grows larger, create a kernel module with the stuff
shared by both libata and drivers/ide.
liblibata? libata-core-core? :)
