These are the symptom error messages:

The fix tries to use the smallest scope CONFIG_* symbols that will fix the build
problem. In this case <linux/ide.h> needs to be included only if IDE=y or
IDE=m were selected. Also, ppc_ide_md is needed only if BLK_DEV_IDE=y or
BLK_DEV_IDE=m

Moved the EXPORT_SYMBOL(ppc_ide_md) from ppc_ksysms.c next to its declaration
in setup_32.c which made <linux/ide.h> not needed. With <linux/ide.h> gone from
ppc_ksyms.c, <asm/cacheflush.h> is needed to address the following warnings and
errors:

  CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:122: error: '__flush_icache_range' undeclared here (not in a function)
arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:122: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of '__flush_icache_range'
arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:123: error: 'flush_dcache_range' undeclared here (not in a function)
arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:123: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'flush_dcache_range'

I tested that the code builds with this patch in various combinations of
configuration options: all the combinations involving BLOCK, IDE and BLK_DEV_IDE

A patch for the warnings above has been already commited here: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-misc-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=49892223f7d3a2333ef9e6cbdd526676e1fc517a

This patch is against Paul's tree (75cdff9242c4e048cb830d359920719d29b9ee7c)
