Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 1b5169405e ide: remove "idex=dma" kernel parameter
It has been obsoleted since 1 Nov 2004, is valid only when used together with
"ide=nodma" kernel parameter (which makes no sense) and only for aec62xx,
cmd64x, cs5220, generic, hpt366, sl82c105, tc86c001 and triflex host drivers.

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 849138827c ide: make legacy IDE VLB modules check for the "probe" kernel params (v2)
Legacy IDE VLB host drivers didn't check for "probe" options when compiled
as modules, which was obviously wrong as we don't want module to poke at
random I/O ports by simply loading it.  Fix it by adding "probe" module param
to legacy IDE VLB host drivers.

v2:
* don't obsolete old "ide0=dtc2278/ht6560b/qd65xx/ali14xx/umc8672"
  IDE driver options yet (per Alan Cox's request) and enhance documentation

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz b6209a90ec ide: remove some obsoleted kernel params (v2)
Remove

* "hdx=serialize"
* "idex=noautotune"
* "idex=autotune"

kernel params, they have been obsoleted for ages.

"idex=serialize", "hdx=noautotune" and "hdx=autotune" are still available
so there is no funcionality loss caused by this patch.

v2:

* fix CONFIG_BLK_DEV_4DRIVES=y build broken by version 1 of the patch

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
