The pci_ide_create_devs() function takes a hd_table parameter but all
callers just pass what ide_drive_get() returns so we can do it locally
simplifying callers and removing hd_table parameter.

Additionally, I think it may also make sense to move pci_ide_create_devs 
call into the realize methods of these IDE controllers so boards do not 
need to do it explicitely. These calls always follow the creation of the 
device immediately so could just be done internally in IDE device and 
simplify it further. I can attempt to prepare additional patches for that 
but first I'd like to hear if anyone has anything against that to avoid 
doing useless work.

No, it's better to do it separately.  I think that otherwise you could
add another IDE controller with -device, and both controllers would try
to add the drives.

Basically, separating the call means that only automatically added
controllers obey "if=ide".

Correct.

Creating device frontends for -drive if=ide is the board's job.  Boards
may delegate to suitable helpers.  I'd very much prefer these helpers
not to live with device model code.  Board and device model code should
be cleanly separated to to reduce the temptation to muddle their
responsibilities.  It's separation of concerns.

I actually wish we had separate sub-trees for boards and devices instead
of keeping both in hw/.

Never too late!

To be clear, you suggest:

- one dir with machines, boards, system-on-module
- one dir with devices, cpu, system-on-chips

Correct?
