To be honest, I don't think that we can clean up the block mapping. For example, blk_rq_map_kern_prealloc() in your patchset doesn't look cleanup to me. It's just moving a hack from ide to the block (well, I have to admit that I did the same thing when I converted sg/st/osst...). We can't have good API with insane users. I don't want to ask this publicly but don't we have any chance to merge the old ide code and libata? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
