[PATCH] move add_gendisk()/del_gendisk() into ->reinit() and ->cleanup()
add_gendisk()/del_gendisk() moved into ->reinit() and ->cleanup() of ide-{disk,cd,floppy} - i.e. moments when high-levle driver claims/gives up a drive. register_disk() also shifted into ->reinit(). consequently, revalidate_drives() is gone (it did messy postponed rereading of partition tables; not needed anymore). Ditto for ide_geninit(). regular 2.5 changes in ->revalidate() and BLKRRPART handling - same as all other block devices.
