block.o and queue.o are linked together into one .ko all the time:
obj-$(CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK)         += mmc_block.o
mmc_block-objs                  := block.o queue.o

Two ways to handle this: I can
1) add a local function prototype of mmc_blk_issue_rq() to queue.c
2) move mmc_init_queue() and mmc_queue_thread() from queue.c to block.c

(2) actually makes sense since both functions are block IO specific.

Thoughts? Preference? Other ideas?

thanks,
grant

ps. It's more obvious now that the return value from
mmc_blk_issue_rq() is getting ignored. *sigh*
