For tape we need to control the retries. This patch adds a retries
counter on the request for REQ_BLOCK_PC commands originating from
scsi_execute* to use. REQ_BLOCK_PC commands comming from the block
layer SG_IO path continue to use the retires set in the ULD init_command.
(scsi_execute* does not set the gendisk so we do not execute
the init_command in that path).

Add scsi helpers to create really-large-requests and convert
scsi-ml to scsi_execute_async().
Per Jens's previous comments, I placed this function in scsi_lib.c.
I made it follow all the queue's limits - I think I did at least :), so
I removed the warning on the function header.
I think the scsi_execute_* functions should eventually take a request_queue
and be placed some place where the dm-multipath hw_handler can use them
if that failover code is going to stay in the kernel. That conversion
patch will be sent in another mail though.

Changes here include removing all of CONFIG_PM while it is being repeatedly
smacked with a lead pipe, moving the BURSTMODE param to a #define (it should
be defined almost always anyway), fixing the rqsize stuff, pulling ide_ioreg_t,
and general cleanups and whatnot.

Some motherboards (such as the Asus P5V800-MX) ship a
PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C586_1 IDE controller alongside a VT8251 southbridge.
This southbridge is currently unrecognised in the via82cxxx IDE driver,
preventing those users from getting DMA access to disks.

Patch from Daniel Jacobowitz
Handle new EABI relocations when loading kernel modules. This is
necessary for CONFIG_AEABI kernels, and also for some broken
(since fixed) old ABI toolchains.

This follows on from Jens' patch and consolidates all of the ULD
separate handlers for REQ_BLOCK_PC into a single call which has his
fix for our direction bug.

ERR_SEVERITY item is defined as a 8 bits item in SAL documentation
($B.2.1 rev december 2003), but as an u16 in sal.h.
This has the side effect that current code in mca.c may not call
ia64_sal_clear_state_info() upon receiving corrected platform errors
if there are bits set in the validation byte. Reported by Xavier Bru.
