Can't you set it to enhanced mode in the bios, then shows up as a
seperate device id and just works. I had the same issue until Jeff
walked me through it :-)
If that really solves all problems why does quirk_intel_ide_combined
not do that automatically? 
I would like to do that.

The problem is allocating and assigning PCI I/O ranges to one or two PCI
devices.  And the BIOS may configure into combined mode, and get
confused if the kernel prefers enhanced mode (untested).
