Yes, it has been reported already, and is most probably a concern in
VirtualBox itself, as qemu/kvm takes just a few seconds.

I guess you're thinking about the "probing eata" messages, which I added
precisely because VirtualBox takes eons to emulate it. This is
linux/src/drivers/scsi/eata.c: printk("probing eata on %lx\n",
port_base);

It's the usual configure --enable/--disable.
€ ./configure --help | grep eata
--enable-eata Linux device driver for SCSI controller EATA
--enable-eata_dma Linux device driver for SCSI controller EATA-DMA
--enable-eata_pio Linux device driver for SCSI controller EATA-PIO
