PATCH 10/21 ide: fix probing for hosts with serialized or IRQ sharing interfaces

After hwif_register_devices() IDE devices are ready to be used so the way in which ide_device_add() works currently is racy for hosts with serialized / IRQ sharing interfaces.

Fix ide_device_add() by looping over interfaces for probe_hwif(), hwif_init() and hwif_register_devices() operations.
