Wouldn't that be the same as the class-code property?

Well, I mainly specified the device node for the IDE controller, because
it works in compatible mode and thus the IDE driver needs to know about
the I/O ports. I guess the driver doesn't probe the BARs, if the
controller is configured for compatible mode (and AFAIK a VIA IDE
controller cannot be made work in fully native mode). Also the ppc_ide_md
function hooks are considered obsolete.
The interrupts for the IDE controller are another story. Judging from
what some developers wrote on this mailing list, there doesn't seem to
be a way to define legacy IDE interrupts (14 & 15) for a PCI device node.
Therefore I'll reuse the IDE interrupt quirk for the Pegasos.
