pata_legacy: resychronize with upstream changes and resubmit
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Update the legacy driver so it can handle VLB ports nicely, and has an
internal structure for nailing new ISA/VLB forms in.  Anyone got an ALI14xx
and a spare day ;)

Also adds an "all" parameter so you can load this driver after all the PCI
ones in a boot time kernel and tell it to grab anything ST412 compatible
even if it is an unknown PCI device.  That allows libata to offer the same
"just get me a disk somehow" fallback that old IDE did.

Obsoletes pata_qdi.
