I will hand it to you guys on a silver platter IDE-TNG.
Below yields modular chipsets and channel index registration.
Selectable IOPS for arch independent Taskfile Transport layers.
Now to finish the job with device class link lists to address fully
modular subdrivers. It also includes 1st generation of device open and
select calls of subdrivers.
You have ide-cd registered on a cdrw and you want to burn a cd?
open(/dev/hdX) transform_subdriver_scsi close(/dev/hdX)
open(/dev/sg) and burn baby burn.
close(/dev/sg) releases transform_subdriver_scsi
open(/dev/hdX) load native atapi transport.
Will do it for TAPE-FLOPPY-DVDCD/RW ...

If this is what you want, this is what I have to put on the table.
If you do not I will delete the code.
