There were a few additional inb()/outb() uses so a few more drivers had
to have the dependency added but for v4 it will no longer be on the
ATA_SFF option and I used your suggestion above for this function.
There was another call to it in ata_generic_init_one() that is only
done for PCI_VENDOR_ID_AL so I added an #ifdef CONFIG_PATA_ALI around
that.

Thanks,
Niklas
