I'm not sure about details, so bare with my ignorance. :)

Will a call to ide.c:ide_register() then be using a generic ide_init_hwif_ports?

If so, since the pmac mediabay has a pmac port arrangement, it will need a modification.  It's call to ide_register() would be replaced with a direct call to pmac_ide_init_hwif_ports() followed by ide_register_hw().

While ide_pmac.c registers mediabay's inserted before booting, anything hotswapped is handled by mediabay.c.  There was a time (maybe still now) that some source trees made the pmac's entry in ppc.md_ide_init_hwif_ports generic, breaking the existing code in mediabay.
