Subject[PATCH] ide-floppy adjustments
(Note: Patch also attached because the inline version is certain to get
line wrapped.)

Fix a build problem when IDEFLOPPY_DEBUG_BUGS is turned off, and eliminate
an access to memory that is no longer allocated (causing systems to fail
booting when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is turned on).
