Below is a patch that silences those two warnings and (hopefully) does the
right thing (I'll attempt to deal with the other ones later today).

I've tried as best I could to work out the logic of what goes on in that
file, and I /think/ I got it right, but I don't have the hardware to test
if I broke something horribly, so someone more knowledgable than me is
needed to confirm the patch and preferably some brave soul with Promise
hardware to test it as well.

A little explanation of why I do what I do in the patch:
ide_probe_for_pdc4030() is called by pdc4030_mod_init() which test the
return value for a zero or nonzero value. In the case of a zero return
-ENODEV is returned, else 0 is returned. So, the first return in
ide_probe_for_pdc4030() that tests if (enable_promise_support == 0) should
as far as I can tell return zero indicating that no devices where found
(since none where probed for), thereby triggering the -ENODEV return in
pdc4030_mod_init(). Further down I removed the #ifdef MODULE around the
last return statement in the file since the function is supposed to be
returning int we need a return value in all cases even if it's never hit
to keep gcc happy, and I modified the return from always returning zero to
return retval, I then make the value of retval be 0 if the loop if the
call to setup_pdc4030() in the loop returns zero for all calls, and 1 if
that call returns 1 just a single time, thus the return value will only
trigger -ENODEV in the calling functions if none of the attempted setups
where successful.   I hope that's the proper intended logic, and if it is
not then I would greatly appreciate it if someone could point out where
the flaw is in my reasoning.

Hm, what compiler version are you using to get this warning?
This should not be happening (the usb_midi_ids are used in the
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro to export the info to userspace), and I
can't duplicate the warning here with gcc versions 3.3.1 or 2.96 (Red
Hat rawhide and Red Hat 7.3 respectively)

Which seems to invert some logic -- from the patch:

-                       return setup_pdc4030(hwif);
+                       if (!setup_pdc4030(hwif))
+                               return -ENODEV;
+                       return 0;

(I cannot find any changes to setup_pdc4030() in that changeset)

So I see, and probably a lot better than what I managed to do (haven't
studied it in detail yet, but it looks a lot more comprehensive than my
little hack).
Ohh well, I had fun trying to sort out the problem and create a fix - now
I'm off looking for more resonably simple stuff to fix.  :)

I just tested this with gcc 3.2.2 (Slackware Linux 9.0) and I do get that
warning :

Ah, it was pointed out to me offline, that if you build those drivers
into the kernel, and not as a module like I was doing, you will see
those warning messages.
