Yep.

How's about this patch?

[PATCH] ide-pmac: fix pmac_ide_init_hwif_ports()

* pmac_ide_init_hwif_ports() can be called by ide_init_hwif_ports()
  (through ppc_ide_md.ide_init_hwif hook) for non IDE PMAC interfaces.
  If this is the case the hw->io_ports[] should be already setup by
  ide_init_hwif_ports()->ide_std_init_ports() so remove redundant code
  from pmac_ide_init_hwif_ports().

  As side-effect this change fixes ctl_addr == 0 special handling in
  ide_init_hwif_ports().

* Fix misleading comment while at it.
