ide-generic: don't probe all legacy ISA IDE ports by default
We can't probe all legacy ISA IDE ports by default as the resources may be

only first two ISA IDE ports by default leaving the decision about probing
the rest to the user (systems with ISA ide2-6 should be very, very rare).
This fixes a regression caused by:
