As a point of PCI pedantry I don't think this is quite sufficient. PCI
has a weird corner case where I/O resources are implied rather than
allocated.

For IDE/SATA you may need to something like

if (class == PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_IDE) {
u8 progif;
pci_read_config_byte(dev, PCI_CLASS_PROG, &progif);
progif |= 5;
pci_write_config_byte(dev, PCI_CLASS_PROG, &progif);
}

so that any adapter is kicked out of legacy mode and doesn't get implied
I/O resources and interrupts. I don't know if that case matters for your
usage.
