The patch titled powerpc: Fix ide-pmac sysfs entry has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is powerpc-fix-ide-pmac-sysfs-entry.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> It looks like the generic ide code now wants ide_init_hwif_ports() to set the parent struct device into the ide_hw structure (new field ?). Without this, the mac ide code can cause the ide probing code to explode in flames in sysfs registration due to what looks like a stale pointer in there (happens when removing/re-inserting one of the hotswap media bays on some laptops).
