[PATCH] IDE cleanups (2.5; similar to ones done for other drivers)
OK, before the next bunch of gendisk merges, here comes a couple of 2.5 IDE cleanups. a) exclusion between rereading partition tables and open() is done in fs/block_dev.c these days, so homegrown one in ide.c is redundant - that code _never_ blocks now. Removed, just as it had been done with counterparts in other drivers. b) blk_ioctl() calls are done in blkdev_ioctl() now; driver doesn't need to handle them. Again, removed as it had been done in all other drivers.
