pata_legacy no longer has the qdi and winbond module parameters:
commit 3c4d783f6922 ("ata: pata_legacy: remove VLB support") removed
both together with the VLB controller support. The entries also refer
to CONFIG_PATA_QDI_MODULE and CONFIG_PATA_WINBOND_VLB_MODULE, which do
not exist either.

Drop both entries.

This one is actually a duplicate, I just found out. Ethan posted a more
complete patch in June that removes all six pata_legacy entries which
commit 3c4d783f6922 ("ata: pata_legacy: remove VLB support") left
behind, this patch covers only two of them:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260607064053.195166-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com/ (local)

It has a Reviewed-by tag from Randy, but does not seem to
have been picked up yet. 

So I suggest: drop 9/9 and take Ethan's patch instead.
The other patches of this series are not affected.

Thanks,
