The current IDE code doesn't allow the user to reserve a drive to be used
only with ide-scsi emulation, if the ide-scsi layer is compiled as a
module. The following trivial patch fixes the problem, I've been using it
for the last 6 months or so.
The patch removes the explicit dependency on CONFIG_SCSI because ide-scsi
itself requires the SCSI subsystem.
Please apply...
Thanks,
Ion
