  * Setup, register & probe an IDE channel driven by this driver, this is
- * called by one of the 2 probe functions (macio or PCI). Note that a channel
- * that ends up beeing free of any device is not kept around by this driver
- * (it is kept in 2.4). This introduce an interface numbering change on some
