rules: remove support for IDE (hd*) devices
The kernel IDE drivers get deprecated now: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/43151 Almost everybody has switched over to libata devices long ago. Recent services do not work with the now deprecated IDE drivers at all and require libata drivers and SCSI infrastructure. Systems who care about the old stuff need to add the rules to the compat rules.
