Alasdair, I took out all the new functionality. This patch is just the
basic conversion. I can try to break it down even more if and do a patch
for every hw handler callout that gets removed (all the callouts end up
getting removed), but that may not buy much since the bulk of the patch
is the REQ_TYPE_LINUX_BLOCK code.
