I thought I should use "safe" command timings for command transfer
mode since taskfile registers should be considered as "shared" for
both drives. At least device selection sequence should be done in
safe speed, isn't it?

Well, I should recalculate safe value for possible slowest gbus clock.

So just masking Reach-Multiple interrupt is better?

Yes, we don't need this usually. So I used pr_debug() instead of
pr_warning(). But I have no strong opinition here. I'll drop it.

The extra_base is used by TX4939IDE_BASE() everywhere...
And I cannot find other good place to initialize extra_base.
We can initialize extra_base in tx4939ide_probe by using
ide_host_alloc()/ide_host_register() instead of ide_host_add(). Is
this preferred?

Yes, that "CAUSION". I will put it in the comment.

I will address all other issues.
Thank you for great review again!
