Although this patch is obviously inspired by your patch, there is
a number of small differnces:

* I do not have the major argument to add_gendisk/del_gendisk that
you remove again in one of your later patches
* I don't mess at all with the array of gendisks - that is a 2.5 issue.
* I move all gendisk handling to drivers/block/genhd.c
* I do not inline theseslow-path routines :)
