i've Cc:-ed Bartlomiej, who maintains drivers/ide/ide-probe.c. Your 
fix/cleanup looks fine to me.

About the "whom to Cc:" question. Sadly, the MAINTAINERS file is 
non-obvious to parse to newbies: there's no clear mapping from file to 
maintainer. (it's rather useless even to oldbies.)

The method i use to determine whom to Cc: if i change something in a 
file is this ~/bin/git-authors script:

 #!/bin/bash
 git log $@ | grep Author: | cut -d: -f2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | tail -5

(also attached)

for drivers/ide/ide-probe.c, it gives:

 earth4:~/tip> git-authors-email drivers/ide/ide-probe.c
       2  Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com>
       2  Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
       3  Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
       4  Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
     135  Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

if there output of git-authors-email is too flat and you are unsure 
about whom to Cc:, take a look at git-log drivers/ide/ide-probe.c output 
and chose the people who do material changes to a file (not drive-by 
changes).
