Using the Promise 20276 IDE controller without raid function
doesn't work with 2.4.21*.
If you want to use the IDE controller just as plain controller without
Promise software raid (i.e. if you prefer to trust the linux software
raid), the kernel always reports this:
PDC20276: IDE controller at PCI slot 02:02.0
PDC20276: chipset revision 1
PDC20276: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
PDC20276: neither IDE port enabled (BIOS)
Afterwards, the kernel disables the controller. This has been reported
by serveral other users. This small patch solves the problem.
