- * init_ide_data() sets reasonable default values into all fields

- * This routine is normally called at driver initialization time,

- * of the kernel (such as memory allocation) to be functioning yet.

- * This is too bad, as otherwise we could dynamically allocate the
- * ide_drive_t structs as needed, rather than always consuming memory
- * for the max possible number (MAX_HWIFS * MAX_DRIVES) of them.

- * FIXME: We should stuff the setup data into __init and copy the
- * relevant hwifs/allocate them properly during boot.
