New drivers are still welcomed... but days of applying
new drivers without any complaints are long gone... ;-)

Now speaking seriously:
* 2.4.x is deprecated (sorry, Marcelo ;)
* this driver shouldn't require much work to port it to 2.6.x
* ide_unregister() is disallowed, unless IDE locking is fixed

Cheers,
Bartlomiej
