This is caused by the block I/O changes going into 2.5. Unfortunately, ATM it
looks like they break at least the following:

drivers/block/acsi.c
drivers/scsi/scsi_debug.c
drivers/ide/icside.c
drivers/ide/ide-pmac.c
drivers/ide/ide-tape.c
drivers/s390/block/dasd_diag.c
drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd.c
drivers/s390/block/dasd_fba.c
drivers/s390/char/tape34xx.c
drivers/s390/char/tapeblock.c
drivers/md/raid5.c
arch/cris/drivers/ide.c

And most likely the following as well:

include/linux/elevator.h
drivers/ide/hptraid.c
drivers/ide/pdcraid.c
drivers/ide/ataraid.c
drivers/md/raid1.c
drivers/md/multipath.c
