Switch the alpha defconfig from the legacy ide driver to libata.
Umm... I don't have an IDE alpha box in a usable shape (fans on
CPU module shat themselves), and it would take a while to resurrect
it, but I remember the joy it used to cause in some versions.
Do you have reports of libata variants of drivers actually tested on
those?
At least pata_cypress works fine on my AlphaStation XP1000:

I also have two AlphaStation 233 currently in storage which I assume use
different IDE chipset which I could test as well.
