You're right in your doubting: there are quite a lot of drivers used

Hold on, what does that mean? IDE is back from the dead and used only
for embedded stuff?

Like jazz, IDE "is not dead, it just smells funny".

Or we force people to convert drivers to libata by *deleting* ide?

I hope not. To me, it would be a shame e.g. to delete more or less well-designed IDE taskfile interface to the ad-hockery that libata has in its place...
