While we're talking about moving things to generic request-based stuff,
any chance one of you could look over to convert ide-cd internal request
submissions to BLOCK_PC?  It's the last user of REQ_PC.  After that changing
the CD layer to submit BLOCK_PC commands directly instead of the
->packet_command hook would be a logical next step.
