Ok, this clashed pretty badly with both the tracing tree (which obviously 
has block tracers) and with my pull ide pull from Bartlomiej (which 
obviously has ide driver changes).

I fixed everything up, and it _looks_ ok, including a "allyesconfig" build 
etc. It wasn't totally trivial, though - in the sense that it's entirely 
possible that I fixed something up incorrectly. Also, in the tracer code, 
I kept the checks for whether something is a "pc" of "fs" request, so it 
now looks like

	__entry->sector    = blk_pc_request(rq) ? 0 : blk_rq_pos(rq);

and I suspect that it could just be an unconditional

	__entry->sector    = blk_rq_pos(rq);

instead, but somebody involved with the whole block tracing thing needs to 
check that out. 

The ide-tape.c changes also need some expert tender loving checks. I 
neither know the code, nor have the hardware to check my fixups. Almost 
all the changes are actually by the same person - it's almost all Tejun's 
code (and mostly the same patches), just coming in through two different 
trees. Not very nice.

Btw, Jens: in your tree, you've committed Tejun's changes without adding 
your own sign-off. Not good!
