ide: remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option (take 2)
* Remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD hack from init_hwif_default() ("hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" kernel parameters should be used instead if somebody wishes to use the old "hd" driver). * Make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_ONLY config option available also when IDE subsystem is used and update help entry. * Remove no longer needed CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option. v2: * Update documentation to suggest "hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" instead of obsoleted "ide0=noprobe". * Update Documentation/ide/ide.txt.

Note that if BOTH hd.c and ide.c are configured into the kernel,
|
||||
hd.c will normally be allowed to control the primary IDE interface.
|
||||
This is useful for older hardware that may be incompatible with ide.c,
|
||||
and still allows newer hardware to run on the 2nd/3rd/4th IDE ports
|
||||
under control of ide.c. To have ide.c also "take over" the primary
|
||||
IDE port in this situation, use the "command line" parameter: ide0=0x1f0
|
||||
|
||||
The IDE driver is modularized. The high level disk/CD-ROM/tape/floppy
|
||||
drivers can always be compiled as loadable modules, the chipset drivers
|
||||
can only be compiled into the kernel, and the core code (ide.c) can be
