This is a poor way to share code between modules. It fails when pata_sis is a module, and it forces another driver to be loaded, simply then to be used as a code library.

If the shared code is tiny, just create a header file and #include it (sata_promise and sata_sx4 do this). Otherwise, create a shared library module.
