libata already has several ARM drivers and does work on that platform in 
general.  A great many platforms are handled by the generic 
pata_platform driver.

There are a handful of IDE drivers not yet ported over to libata, all 
!x86 drivers; maybe there's an odd ARM platform or two in there, I 
haven't checked recently.

If there's a problem or missing functionality, just speak up...
