And atari_scsi is another platform driver, so it has a similar alias. 
Stefan's video shows that atari_scsi loads automatically too.

falconide isn't a platform driver; maybe it will have to be converted to 
one if it is ever to load automatically (likewise macide). Michael, is the 
platform bus appropriate for falconide?

No idea about q40ide...

AIUI this is an unrelated problem. We may need to bisect to get to the 
bottom of this one.
