[PATCH] Let ide interfaces choose a parent device

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>]

Hi !

Right now, the parent struct device of IDE interfaces is forced to be
either the pci_dev or some not-yet implemented legacy node. This is
wrong as non-PCI ide interfaces may well hang off different bus types.
For PowerMac, for example, I'm defining a bus type for Apple's "MacIO"
ASIC and ide/ppc/pmac.c will hang off a device on that bus.

The following patch will let the HWIF fill the parent pointer and only
put it's "default" stuff in there if it's NULL.
