Why not "ata"?

Also, what mmio-ide in the compat properly means in the context of ide_platform which is able to handle both port and memory mapped IDE. I think we must get rid with this crap, and since this IDE register mapping is pretty much board specific, call it something like "mpc8349emitx-ide" instead.
