Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH] pata_parport: paride replacement

Hi Ondrej,

I just took a quick glance and it seems like the actual protocol
modules still are basically almost exactly the same ones as the
paride ones.  Is there a way to just keep the existing modules?

The only big thing I noticed is the host template, but at least
for the transitional periode we could probably allocate that
dynamically in the core.  I think would reduce the amount of code
churn nicely and make review much easier.
