Hi,

So for the current drive we do put_disk() here and for rest of the drives
we do it in out_put_disk:.

How about if we go through all the N_DRIVE always and do put disk as need be.

	for(i = 0, i < N_DRIVE, i++) {
		if (!disks[i])
			continue;

		if (disks[i]->queue)
			blk_cleanup_queue();

		if (!disk_registered[i])
			disks[i]->queue = NULL;

		put_disk();
	}

It is little more lines of code but personally I find it easier to understand 
and less error prone as future modifications take place.

Thanks
Vivek
