Two floppy controllers, different IRQ/DMA channels?

Is it possible to use two floppy controllers under linux, where each
controller has its own DMA and IRQ settings?

The floppy documentation says that two controllers at different base ports
are supported, and also that the IRQ and DMA settings can be changed. I
can't see how I set the IRQ/DMA parameters independently for each FDC
though; the docs seem to imply that they're set for the primary FDC
and the secondary has to use the same values :(

Can it be done with the existing driver somehow?

thanks
