Was macide the only IDE driver in Debian/m68k kernels without a libata

CONFIG_IDE.

There's still q40ide.c (ISA IDE interface, byte-swapped, so would need 
treatment similar to Falcon IDE). Hasn't been updated to a platform 
device yet.


AIUI, q40 support is not included in Debian/m68k kernel builds.

I wonder whether q40 could re-use the pata_falcon driver . I suppose 
pata_falcon_set_mode() would be undesirable on q40 (?) It could be made 
optional using the data parameter passed to 
platform_device_register_resndata().
