So with patches like this, it's always nice to know what your target is.
Do you want this in .29, or just queued up for .30? It's not always easy
to judge the urgency of such patches :-)

Also, I note that you are using end_request() throughout the driver. We
really want to get away from that, you should be using blk_end_request()
as that will handle full requests and not just segment-by-segment. No
worries for this patch, but you may want to consider that for a future
patch.
