Subject: ide: pass hw_regs_t-s to ide_device_add[_all]() (take 3)

* Add 'hw_regs_t **hws' argument to ide_device_add[_all]() and convert
  host drivers + ide_legacy_init_one() + ide_setup_pci_device[s]() to use
  it instead of calling ide_init_port_hw() directly.

  [ However if host has > 1 port we must still set hwif->chipset to hint
    consecutive ide_find_port() call that the previous slot is occupied. ]

* Unexport ide_init_port_hw().

v2:
* Use defines instead of hard-coded values in buddha.c, gayle.c and q40ide.c.
  (Suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven)

* Better patch description.

v3:
* Fix build problem in ide-cs.c. (Noticed by Stephen Rothwell)

There should be no functional changes caused by this patch.

Subject: ide: remove ->INB, ->OUTB and ->OUTBSYNC methods

* Remove no longer needed ->INB, ->OUTB and ->OUTBSYNC methods.

Then:

* Remove no longer used default_hwif_[mm]iops() and ide_[mm_]outbsync().

* Cleanup SuperIO handling in ns87415.c.

There should be no functional changes caused by this patch.

From 48c3c1072651922ed153bcf0a33ea82cf20df390 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:55:57 +0200
Subject: ide: add struct ide_host (take 3)

* Add struct ide_host which keeps pointers to host's ports.

* Add ide_host_alloc[_all]() and ide_host_remove() helpers.

* Pass 'struct ide_host *host' instead of 'u8 *idx' to
  ide_device_add[_all]() and rename it to ide_host_register[_all]().

* Convert host drivers and core code to use struct ide_host.

* Remove no longer needed ide_find_port().

* Make ide_find_port_slot() static.

* Unexport ide_unregister().

v2:
* Add missing 'struct ide_host *host' to macide.c.

v3:
* Fix build problem in pmac.c (s/ide_alloc_host/ide_host_alloc/)
  (Noticed by Stephen Rothwell).

From 6f904d015262dfa43eb1cecc00b0998b4c3543f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:55:57 +0200
Subject: ide: add ide_host_add() helper

Add ide_host_add() helper which does ide_host_alloc()+ide_host_register(),
then convert ide_setup_pci_device[s](), ide_legacy_device_add() and some
host drivers to use it.

While at it:

* Fix ide_setup_pci_device[s](), ide_arm.c, gayle.c, ide-4drives.c,
  macide.c, q40ide.c, cmd640.c and cs5520.c to return correct error value.

* -ENOENT -> -ENOMEM in rapide.c, ide-h8300.c, ide-generic.c, au1xxx-ide.c
  and pmac.c

* -ENODEV -> -ENOMEM in palm_bk3710.c, ide_platform.c and delkin_cb.c

* -1 -> -ENOMEM in ide-pnp.c
