A quick check of "git log drivers/ide/" turns up a pile of fixes and
cleanups; for instance:

c2f7d1e ide: pmac: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()
a6fd6063 ide: cs5536: use module_pci_driver()
58e48be ide: pmac: Remove casting the return value which is a void pointer
64110c1 ide: sgiioc4: Staticize ioc4_ide_attach_one()
70ddce8 ide: palm_bk3710: add missing __iomem annotation

The two proposed patches here are extremely low risk, don't actually
change the compiled code in any way like some of those did, and fix real
compiler warnings.
