And even if for this special hardware it's usually not doable there
are things like greg's fake hotplug pci driver.  So a non-__devinit pci
probe method is a bug, please fix them in PCI.

Greg, should I add "fake" PCI hotplug support to some IDE
drivers just to make fake hotplug PCI driver happy?

No, not at all.  The fake hotplug pci driver is for developers.  Do not
go changing your IDE drivers just to prevent oopses from happening when
someone uses the fake hotplug pci driver.

thanks,
