Willem,
ide-scsi in lk 2.5 ...
a) needs .eh_bus_reset_handler defined in idescsi_template
    and implemented. It probably would be a dummy unless there
    is a clean way to do an ATAPI bus (or device) reset.
b) replace .detect and .release in idescsi_template with the
    slave_alloc, slave_configure and slave_destroy interface

These are documented in Documentation/scsi/scsi_mid_low_api.txt .
If you find mistakes or the explanation is not clear then
complain to me. For an example of the use of these new
interfaces see scsi_debug.c or aic7xxx_old.c

Good to see that you have fixed the ide sysfs de-registration
problem.

Doug Gilbert
