I think I know what the problem is.
In include/linux/libata.h, make sure the preprocessor declarations are as
follows. I think the defaults have ATA_ENABLE_PATA undefined.
#define ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI /* undefine to disable ATAPI support */
#define ATA_ENABLE_PATA /* define to enable PATA support in some
* low-level drivers */
Sorry I forgot to mention this earlier.
