This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_request_callback(), which has driver callback feature. There are 2 drivers which need to do special works between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(): ide-cd and scsi bidi. For such drivers, blk_end_request_callback() allows it to pass a callback function which is called between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(). This interface should/will be removed, after the drivers remove such tricky behaviors. o ide-cd (cdrom_newpc_intr()) cdrom_newpc_intr() needs to: 1. call post_transform_command() to modify request contents 2. wait completing request until DRQ_STAT is cleared after end_that_request_first() and before end_that_request_last(). As for the second one, ide-cd will wait for the interrupt from device. So end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last() are called separately in ide-cd. This means blk_end_request_callback() has to return without completing request even if no leftover in the request. To satisfy the requirement, callback function has return value so that drivers can tell blk_end_request_callback() to return without completing request. o scsi mid-layer for bidi request (scsi_end_bidi_request()) Bidi sets its specific value to rq->data_len before the request is completed so that upper-layer can read it. This setting must be between end_that_request_chunk() and end_that_request_last(), because rq->data_len may be used in end_that_request_chunk() by blk_trace and so on.
