Mark "hdx=remap" and "hdx=remap63" kernel parameters as obsoleted
(they are layering violation and should be dealt with in the same
 way as done by libata - device-mapper should be used instead).

Mark "hdx=[driver_name]" and "hdx=scsi" kernel parameters as obsoleted
(nowadays device-driver binding can be changed at runtime through sysfs
 and it can also be dealt with using per device driver parameters).

Mark "ide0=ali14xx|cmd640_vlb|dtc2278|ht6560b|qd65xx|umc8672" kernel
parameters as obsoleted (per host driver replacements have been available
for a long time).

* Skip probing port if "hdx=noprobe" parameter was used for both devices on it.

* Obsolete "idex=noprobe" parameter - it only works for ide_generic, cmd640
  and PCI hosts in Compatibility mode (on alpha/x86/ia64/m32r/mips/ppc32).

  (DEPRECATED)" config option is used
