ide: add helpers for preparing sense requests
This is in preparation of removing the queueing of a sense request out of the IRQ handler path. Use struct request_sense as a general sense buffer for all ATAPI devices ide-{floppy,tape,cd}. tj: * blk_get_request(__GFP_WAIT) can't be called from do_request() as it can cause deadlock. Converted to use inline struct request and blk_rq_init(). * Added xfer / cdb len selection depending on device type. * All sense prep logics folded into ide_prep_sense() which never fails. * hwif->rq clearing and sense_rq used handling moved into ide_queue_sense_rq(). * blk_rq_map_kern() conversion is moved to later patch.
