hrm, some of this is already in #upstream (and thus -mm, though maybe 
akpm has not yet regenerated his stuff).

patch(1) seems to think I already have this stuff, and indeed the most 
recent changesets in pata_legacy are

     pata_legacy: Merge winbond support

     This puts winbond VLB in with the other ISA/VLB support and means 
we can
     lose pata_winbond.c. With all the VLB/ISA probe in one space (and 
out of
     the core libata) this makes legacy probing work sanely.

     Also switch to devm_ for resource handling on the ports post probe

     pata_legacy: resychronize with upstream changes and resubmit

     Update the legacy driver so it can handle VLB ports nicely, and has an
     internal structure for nailing new ISA/VLB forms in.  Anyone got an 
ALI14xx
     and a spare day ;)

     Also adds an "all" parameter so you can load this driver after all 
the PCI
     ones in a boot time kernel and tell it to grab anything ST412 
compatible
     even if it is an unknown PCI device.  That allows libata to offer 
the same
     "just get me a disk somehow" fallback that old IDE did.

     Obsoletes pata_qdi.
