Hello.

Did you try checkpatch.pl?
Sure.

This driver uses stuff from <asm-mips/ide.h>.

[ I guess I could put '-mips' there to silence warnings on tx493{8,9}.c,
  however I don't know of the way to get rid of ide-io-std.c's one... ]
BTW, tx4939ide_{in,out}put_data_swap and
tx4939ide_{in,out}put_data_swap do exactly same thing.

If byte-swapped version of ide_{in,out}put_data() were available by
ide core, they can be used instead.  The byte-swapped version of
default_tp_ops would much helps such queer big-endian platforms.  Is
it worth to bloat ide core? ;-)

Seems to be a good idea and it may also help some other host drivers
(ide-h8300.c?).

I'm not sure we need to carry the extra little used code just to help some exotic driver.

Thanks,
Bart

MBR, Sergei
