Hi all, this series is the first part of cleaning up lifetimes and allocation of the gendisk and request_queue structure. It adds a new interface to allocate the disk and queue together for bio based drivers, and a helper for cleanup/free them when a driver is unloaded or a device is removed. Together this removes the need to treat the gendisk and request_queue as separate entities for bio based drivers.
