[PATCH] ide conflicts with floppy

Hello Andre,

I don't know if you received my last mail about ide-2.4.19-p7.all.convert.6.
I encountered two problems with it (even with convert.7) :
  - it doesn't compile on alpha because of a typo (fix attached)
  - when the IDE chipset is an ALI M5229, the floppy cannot get its resources.
Although the first one was trivial, it took me about a day to find that a
piece of patch to arch/i386/pci-pc.c disabled a resource fixup in
pci_fixup_ide_bases() if the pci function was not 1. The fact is that my
notebook, my k6 server and even an alpha server (with the same chipset) use
this chipset with a pci function 0, but all my other systems have their IDE
controller at 1. So it seems particular to that chipset anyway, but I don't
know for others (tested only sis, via and amd).

I don't know what this test was intended for, but after removing it,
everything's OK again. So I attach it here for those who also have trouble
getting their floppy to work with certain IDE chipset after applying your IDE
patch. Except for this, the rest of your patch seems to work well on several
systems.

Cheers,
Willy
