That means that the ata-piix driver decided it was unhappy for some 
reason, and decided to fali with ENODEV.  It would be very interesting 
to know what part of the device probe failed.  From the Xen perspective, 
it looks like everything went OK.

(This is just a reminder to me to implement this function; it only got 
called because ata-piix had already decided to fail and was 
unregistering its resources.)
