piix in current kernel (3.2.x)?

aka "yet another System Unbootable After Upgrade".

What's the name of piix module in the current kernel? The one that calls devices /dev/hdX natively, not those that have sdX even for PATA drives. Not ata_piix, in particular. I used to have MODULES="piix ide-gd_mod" in my mkinitcpio.conf with 3.0-ARCH, but with the new 3.2.something kernel I can't find those modules.

Or is it the time to start using home-built kernel?

You should be using ata_piix, not the legacy IDE modules (which we've removed entirely). If the PATA modules do not work, please file a kernel bug report.

Ugh, I see, ok.
Using PATA modules isn't an option: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=130532
