Well, since blk_rq_map_kern_prealloc() is going to be used only in
ide-cd (driver needs it to queue a sense request from within the irq
handler) and since it is considered a hack I could try to move it out of
the irq handler and do away only with blk_rq_map_kern() if that is more
of an agreeable solution?
