The alternative fix can be.

I just didn't spend much time to see which is better.

Hi,
This patch is to pata_platform.c but at this time, it's powerpc specific
because it can only be triggerred using openfirmware, so I post the patch
here. The patch is against 2.6.26-rc8.
The problem is triggerred when ata device is populated using
pata_of_platform.c, and no irq is assigned (poll mode, such as CF card).
pata_of_platform_probe() parse device tree and
if (ret == NO_IRQ)
irq_res.start = irq_res.end = -1;
Then irq is 0xffffffff, not NULL. Probe will fail coz irq can't be
requested.

(irq_res->start > 0) will be true even when it is (-1). When the device
has no irq, irq_res->start is assigned (-1).
