I'd rather avoid touching 2.6.24 unless it actually fixes a bug or regression... I'm tempted to actually remove all ifdef's ... if you have a media-bay, then there are about 99% chances it contains an IDE device, with the remaining percent being split with putting a floppy or a battery in. I doubt anybody will care building a kernel without the support for these and with the mediabay support, and still want to save a handful of bytes in that driver. Ben.
