As the matter of fact, I've got bdev-next variant covering ide-gd, so
if you can push the relevant ide patch(es) to Linus, bdev would be ready
to go. Or I can push the mainline-based variant and send the pieces
that affect ide-gd your way (basically, it's a matter of f_mode/f_flags
stuff being touched in ide-gd instead of ide-floppy, converting your
disk_ops->ioctl() to sane prototype and converting ide-gd.c to new
bdev method prototypes). Up to you...
Al, trying to order the VFS patch-pile into mergable shape right now...
