I think that for the first attempt changing will be enough:
-static int fdc;                        /* current fdc */
+static int current_fdc;                        /* current fdc */
and
-#define FD_IOPORT fdc_state[fdc].address
+#define FD_IOPORT fdc_state[current_fdc].address
and for fd_setdor in ./arch/arm/include/asm/floppy.h
So after a bit more digging, that should not be correct because:
  - disk_change() uses a local "fdc" variable with expectations that
    it will be used by fd_inb(FD_DIR)
    
  - set_dor() uses a local fdc argument that's used by
    fd_outb(newdor, FD_DOR)

Here we have "fdc" hidden in:
  - FD_DOR/FD_DIR (referencing FD_IOPORT) on x86
  - fd_outb(), relying on fd_setdor() on ARM
And in the ARM case, fdc is used to index a two-entries array with exactly
identical values, with N_FDC set to 1 so even there it's pointless... Maybe
I'll get rid of this first.
