I'd second that. I've been running 2.5 on two boxes for awhile.
One is a VIA C3 (via82xx) the other is a PIII. (ice1712)
Both IDE, both working fine on 2.5.x (Haven't finished sorting
out the PIII audio yet, however - total Lack of Free Time) 

The 2.5 kernel is moving into the 'must-fix' stage, so now is
the time to start running it....and send in those bug reports..
(http://bugme.osdl.org is a good place to cc: 2.5 reports,btw )
