Subject: [RFC: 2.6 patch] fs/block_dev.c: remove #if 0'ed code

Commit b2e895dbd80c420bfc0937c3729b4afe073b3848 #if 0'ed this code stating:

<--  snip  -->

    [PATCH] revert blockdev direct io back to 2.6.19 version
    
    Andrew Vasquez is reporting as-iosched oopses and a 65% throughput
    slowdown due to the recent special-casing of direct-io against
    blockdevs.  We don't know why either of these things are occurring.
    
    The patch minimally reverts us back to the 2.6.19 code for a 2.6.20
    release.

<--  snip  -->

It has since been dead code, and unless someone wants to revive it now 
it's time to remove it.

This patch also makes bio_release_pages() static again and removes the 
ki_bio_count member from struct kiocb, reverting changes that had been 
done for this dead code.
