This thing is fairly unpleasant.  It would have been better to have
open-coded `char *' everywhere - the typedef just obscures what's going
on.  Or void*.

Also, in most cases the return value of getdqbuf() is cast to a `struct
qt_disk_dqdbheader *', so why not make getdqbuf() return a pointer of
that type?

Anyway, that's all old code and this patch just moves it around. 
Please sometime take a look at whether this code is as tip-top,
super-duper as we'd like?

I expect you'll get some nice code-size and cache-footprint
improvements by uninlining these.
