Because on at least some kernels

hda=noprobe ... etc

does not stop the old IDE layer grabbing the PCI device and continuing to
claim ownership (which means ATA cannot attach to it). Arguably this is
correct behaviour as the IDE layer was asked to ignore the devices *NOT*
to ignore the controller.
