[GIT] IDE

Please pull to get these IDE bug fixes:

1) DMA timeouts cause requests to get lost completely and never
requeued. Fix from Herbert Xu. (Tejun has a different
approach to this problem which makes PIO and DMA timeouts
get handled more symmetrically, but I'll defer that to
ide-next-2.6)

2) taskfile ops with CFQ scheduler bomb because the taskfile
code allocates a request then changes it's direction (e.g.
READ vs. WRITE) and this makes CFQ explode. Fix by allocating
the correct request type from the beginning. From Mikulas Patocka.

Thanks!
