Hmm, are we still adding new IDE drivers? Do you also have a

   Yes, why not?

driver for the new libata layer?

   No (sorry for replying for Vitaly but I know the situation).

I think it would even be simpler to do.

   Wel have no interest in it right now.

You could also make it an of_platform_driver at the same time
instead of adding more cruft to fsl_soc.c. Since we're already

   That's a fair point (and fsl_soc.c doesn't seem proper place anyway).

about to add the electra_ide.c driver in 2.6.23, I guess there
should really be _one_ driver that is able to handle all
of_device based ATA hosts.

   One driver to rule them all. :-)
   That may be not so simple as it seems...
