Where did you get this wd driver?  I'm running in a similar
configuration (second controller on 0x170 and irq 15) with a homebrew
merge of Helbekkmo's changes and patchkit-0.2.4.  I tend to get a fair
number of "wdc[01]: extra interrupt" and "stray interrupts" for IRQ 7(???).
Performance is good, and everything seems to work OK, but I would like
to eliminate these messages.
