Yeah, here is a quick fix.

Manuel, really sorry about the bug and thanks a lot for the
investigation.

Subject: [PATCH] remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in genhd.c

This patch remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in
gendisk, and adds them to sd.c and sr.c.

The commit abf5439370491dd6fbb4fe1a7939680d2a9bc9d4 moved cmdfilter
from gendisk to request_queue. It turned out that in some subsystems
multiple gendisks share a single request_queue. So we can't call
blk_register_filter in add_disk. Otherwise we get:

Using physmap partition information
Creating 3 MTD partitions on "physmap-flash":
0x00000000-0x01c00000 : "User FS"
0x01c00000-0x01c40000 : "booter"
kobject (8511c410): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.

[<80100460>] _stext+0x60/0x1bc

In the long term, we need to fix such subsystems but we need a quick
fix now. This patch add the command filter support to only sd and sr
though it might be useful for other SG_IO users (like cciss).
