Why pci_get_class() in ide_default_io_base() cause crash on SMTC?

The bug wasn't really SMTC specific, it was just that it showed up on SMTC builds. The failure was caused by the early parsing of the idebus=xx argument. The argument parser ended up calling
pci_scan that unconditionally enabled interrupts prematurely.

Ralf says this has now been fixed in head of tree:
Turns out our dear friends at Intel recently had trouble with some JVC CDROM
drive and their changes made a proper fix for us fairly easy.

2.6.22: 50a32ae87aed46b01c8e0c2e90cd6f06a3800c33

For older kernels the generic PCI code doesn't have the necessary bits in so
that'd be somewhat more surgery than I want in lmo.
