Of course it is critical :-).

I think so.
Andre what do you think?

And one more thing in ide-pci.c:ide_setup_pci_device() after explicitly
enabling device's IOs we may need to update dev->resource and we don't
do this (we place chipset in native mode so i.e. on VIA base addresses
are just showing up). How to update them?
