    ide: dynamic allocation of device structures · 5e7f3a46

    Allocate device structures dynamically instead of having them embedded
    in ide_hwif_t:
    
    * Remove needless zeroing of port structure from ide_init_port_data().
    
    * Add ide_hwif_t.devices[MAX_DRIVES] (table of pointers to the devices).
    
    * Add ide_port_{alloc,free}_devices() helpers and use them respectively
      in ide_{host,free}_alloc().
    
    * Convert all users of ->drives[] to use ->devices[] instead.
    
    While at it:
    
    * Use drive->dn for the slave device check in scc_pata.c.
    
    As a nice side-effect this patch cuts ~1kB (x86-32) from the resulting
    code size:
    
       text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
      53963    1244     237   55444    d894 drivers/ide/ide-core.o.before
      52981    1244     237   54462    d4be drivers/ide/ide-core.o.after
