[PATCH] stop CompactFlash devices being marked as removable
This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable. They are not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are inseparable. When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the system and never sits in a media-less state. This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops. Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be removed from ide_drive_t.
