Because on x86 the BIOS places the IDE controller at the legacy
addresses (0x1f0, 0x170), and then setup-pci.c spots that the via ide
controller is also the legacy IDE controller, and thus uses the legacy
irq numbers 14 and 15.

What I'm looking for is a tidy way of achieving the same result on a
platform where the boot firmware did not put the via ide controller at
the legacy addresses.
