request_irq, MPX8xx, IDE, PCMCIA, ...

Hi there,

last year ide-cs was working on MPC8xx platforms.

It was necessary to define

	define ide_request_irq(irq,hand,flg,dev,id)
request_8xxirq((irq),(hand),(flg),(dev),(id))

in the board specific header file.

I just relalised that on December 16 code in ide-probe was changed!!!

-               if (ide_request_irq(hwif->irq, &ide_intr, sa, hwif->name,
hwgroup)) {
+               if (request_irq(hwif->irq,&ide_intr,sa,hwif->name,hwgroup)) {

Now it crashes with a "Kernel panic: request_irq".

What is the status of the request_8xxirq() vs request_irq() stuff?

BTW: Is the patch changing IN_BYTE() to hwif->INB() etc. working on MPC8xx
platforms?

Thanks a million,

Steven

As part of the IDE cleanup, yes.

At the certain annoyance of Dan Malek (sorry Dan), really really soon
now.  I've got a local (Marcelo-based) 2.4 with the changes in, and lightly
tested.  Once it passes some more heavy 'stress', I'll ask Paul to send
it onto Marcelo.
