Calling isa_ide_init() twice with the same IRQ 13 fails:

qemu: hardware error: isa irq 13 already assigned

Use a different IRQ (14) for the second one to avoid this.

The implied question behind "RFC" is, has this been a dormant bug in  
ppc_prep.c or would this need to be fixed at ISA level (allowing two  
devices to share the same IRQ) in isa-bus.c where the above error  
message is raised?

That depends on the hardware. Usually ISA can't share IRQs. There are some exceptions though, where ISA controllers have some built in magic to enable sharing along identical devices. Not sure which case we're looking at here, but having them separate is certainly the safe choice.

I am not sure it is actually a good idea. While it fixes the QEMU error,
it breaks the kernel boot which waits for both IDE channels on IRQ 13.
This causes an endless boot, so the machine never finishes to boot:

| ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 13
| ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 13 (shared with ide0)
| hda: max request size: 512KiB
| hda: 20971520 sectors (10737 MB) w/256KiB Cache, CHS=16383/255/63
| hda: cache flushes supported
| hda: hda1 hda2
| ide-cd: cmd 0x5a timed out
| hdc: lost interrupt
| ide-cd: cmd 0x5a timed out
| hdc: lost interrupt
| hdc: ATAPI 4X CD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache
| Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
| hdc: lost interrupt
| ide-cd: cmd 0x3 timed out
| hdc: lost interrupt
| ide-cd: cmd 0x3 timed out
| hdc: lost interrupt
| hdc: lost interrupt
| ...

As a temporary workaround it seems better to disable the second IDE
channel, this solution works.
