I know that you me to do this differently that I did in 2.6.4.  I need
to override the hwif->OUTB (et, all) functions.  Do I implement my own
version of the default_hwif_ function?

No, arch specific code shouldn't touch generic one.
Your host driver should take care of this.

If you need some changes in generic code please describe them
and I'll try to fix/enhance it.

[ I know about polling but this is really non trivial change as i.e.
  we have 4 versions of IDE PIO code (!) - I'm cleaning this mess now. ]

I wonder if we're talking about the same thing.  My platform does not
have DMA nor does it have an IRQ.  PIO, as I understand it, refers to
programmed IO and not to polling proper.  Do you intend to support
polling?

I am speaking about PIO mode data transfers not PIO register access
and I intend to use polling instead of IRQs for them.

It requires some time as I need to clean existing mess first:
- task_*() and flagged_task_*() in ide-taskfile.c
- read_intr() and write_intr() in ide-disk.c
- etc.
