The block I/O + elevator + I/O scheduler code spend a lot of time trying
to merge I/Os -- rightfully so under "normal" circumstances. However,
if one were to know that the incoming I/O stream was /very/ random in
nature, the cycles are wasted.
This patch adds a per-request_queue tunable that (when set) disables
merge attempts (beyond the simple one-hit cache check), thus freeing up
a non-trivial amount of CPU cycles.

This patch changes rq->cmd from the static array to a pointer to
support large commands.
We rarely handle large commands. So for optimization, a struct request
still has a static array for a command. rq_init sets rq->cmd pointer
to the static array.

This converts ide to use blk_rq_init to initialize the request.

blk_get_request initializes rq->cmd (rq_init does) so the users don't
need to do that.
The purpose of this patch is to remove sizeof(rq->cmd) and &rq->cmd,
as a preparation for large command support, which changes rq->cmd from
the static array to a pointer. sizeof(rq->cmd) will not make sense and
&rq->cmd won't work.

This patch adds bio_copy_kern similar to
bio_copy_user. blk_rq_map_kern uses bio_copy_kern instead of
bio_map_kern if necessary.
bio_copy_kern uses temporary pages and the bi_end_io callback frees
these pages. bio_copy_kern saves the original kernel buffer at
bio->bi_private it doesn't use something like struct bio_map_data to
store the information about the caller.

As ps3disk is a ppc64-only driver, sector_t equals to unsigned long, and the
cast is not needed.
Reuse in another (possibly 32-bit) driver is protected by the safety net called
`compiler warning' (with the cast, it may silently truncate to 32-bit).
If sector_t ever changes, we will get a compiler warning as well (with the
cast, we won't).

This requires moving rq_init() from get_request() to blk_alloc_request().
The upside is that we can now require an rq_init() from any path that
wishes to hand the request to the block layer.
rq_init() will be exported for the code that uses struct request
without blk_get_request.
This is a preparation for large command support, which needs to
initialize struct request in a proper way (that is, just doing a
memset() will not work).

Fix 18 errors and several warnings given by checkpatch.pl:
- use of C99 // comments;
- trailing whitespace;
- 'switch' and 'case' not at the same indentation level;
- no space before the open parenthesis of the 'if' and 'switch' statements;
- space between function name and open parenthesis (though I have introduced
such warnins in some places since the code looks prettier with the spaces);
- including <asm/io.h> instead of <linux/io.h>;
- line over 80 characters.
In addition to these changes, also do the following:
- make the arrays in sil_set_pio_mode() 'static', and make the arrays in
sil_set_dma_mode() 'static const';
- change the string of the 'if' statements into the 'switch' statement in
sil_pata_udma_filter();
- drop the needless '==' operators from the 'if' statements where a condition
is a mere bit test;
- remove needless initializer for the 'tmp' variable in init_chipset_siimage();
- beautify groups of the variable initializers and assignment operators;
- add new line after variable definitions;
- remove new line between the comment and the statements it refers to;
- remove needless curly braces and parentheses;
- fix typos, capitalize acronyms, etc. in the comments...

It's plain wrong for PCMCIA to select HAVE_IDE that implies e.g. the
availability of an asm/ide.h
It turns out this was done for ARM, and we can simply always select
HAVE_IDE on ARM instead of manually tracking which platforms might
possible have an IDE controller directly or indirectly.
