      [PATCH] 2.5.10 IDE 42 · 9dbf0015
      Martin Dalecki authored
      - Streamline the usage of sector_t over the strategy routines in question a
         bit. Streamline the do_request code in ide-disk.c.
      
      - Improve the readability of start_request in ide.c.
      
      - Remove obsolete/nowhere used stuff from hdreg.h.
      
      - Splitup special_t into classical flag field.
      
      - Use only a single field to determine the capacity of a drive.  Make this
         field and the code paths it follows as far as possible use the sector_t
         instead of a hard coded integer types.  This increases the chances that at
         some distant point in time we will indeed be able to use 64 bit wide sector_t
         entities. (Disks are getting huge those times now...)

      [PATCH] permit zero-length readahead, and tidy up readahead · 92216226
      Andrew Morton authored
      - Initialise the per-request_queue readahead parameter properly,
        rather than the dopey "if it's zero you get the deafult"
        approach.
      
      - Permit zero-length readahead.
      
      - 80-columnify mm/readahead.c
