Again, I would prefer this went straight into block/ll_rw_blk.c. Rene
and I am using something similar in the new Mitsumi driver although
one of us has a bug already, we're using req->nr_sectors for this...
The req->hard_nr_sectors is specifically marked block layer internal and
since nr_sectors is what we're requesting and reading (we can't deal with
partial transfers anyway since the drive won't tell us where it failed as
far as I've been able to see and we do want to make read requests for as
many sectors as possible at a time for speed) I believe that in our case the
nr_sectors is fine.
Rene.
