I'm not sure, but I guess such H/W support for IDE hot swap would include an IDE RAID card that would probably handle such things by itself and kernel wouldn't use disks directly. Instead the RAID card will provide some 'pseudo' devices which will appear as disks to the kernel. Most probably this is handled by the special IDE RAID card drivers that exists in late kernels (Promise Fasttrak). But if you just want 'normal' hot-swap IDE disks on Linux, you're out of luck (somebody, correct me if I'm wrong). You could also check out http://www.linux-ide.org/, where I saw something about IDE hot-swap...
