[PATCH] ide: identify non decoded master/slave by serial and model
From: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Some interfaces (notably PCMCIA ones) don't decode the master/slave select so you get two copies of a device appearing and bad things happening if a user accidentally uses both. This checks for the model/serial matching but also knows about non ATA drives ide=noprobe and a Maxtor problem that was found in Andrew's testing of an earlier patch. Although M00000.. drives should be RMA'd to Maxtor (and with info on where they were obtained...) we don't want to break anyone who has them.
