See patch.
At the very least the IDE legacy port access must be enabled to be
able to use FILO. The rest is optional, but I see no reason to not
enable it per default.

should this maybe be a cmos option instead? Some old drives (being
present in old machines) might not work with the setting.

Enable IDE legacy port access and UDMA/33 for all
440BX based boards
per default, for now. If there are problems with UDMA on some of
them we might selectively disable UDMA there.

On the long run, yes. IMO we should automatically "extract" a CMOS
option out of these config variables. All of them make run-time
decisions in the code already -> perfect for CMOS options.
For now I'd like to commit as is, there's no CMOS support on 440BX
boards anyway at the moment, and ide_legacy_enable = 1 is really needed
to be able to use FILO.

Updated patch. It enableѕ legacy I/O port access, but disables
UDMA/33 per default as we don't know if the user's devices support it.

Disable UDMA/33 per default, which is slower but the safe choice, as we
don't know which IDE devices a user has attached, and some don't support
UDMA/33 very well or at all.
