The comments would seem to indicate that this is only needed if you have a second controller. Which leads me to wonder what if I have 3 or 4 pdc controllers.
for (port = 0; port <= 1; ++port) { ide_pci_enablebit_t *e = &(d->enablebits[port]);
/* * If this is a Promise FakeRaid controller, * the 2nd controller will be marked as * disabled while it is actually there and enabled * by the bios for raid purposes. * Skip the normal "is it enabled" test for those. */ if (((d->vendor == PCI_VENDOR_ID_PROMISE) && ((d->device == PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20262) || (d->device == PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20265))) && (secondpdc++==1) && (port==1)) goto controller_ok;
