Marcelo, Andre,

Someone apparently added the "hook", but it was never used in the kernel,

What is ide_xlate_1024 referring to?

It seems that the "ide_xlate_1024_hook" is redundant in
./drivers/ide/ide-probe.c

It's not used anywhere by the kernel, and it caused "depmod" to fail
with unknown ide_xlate_1024_hook symbol.
