    ide: add support for SCSI ioctls to ide-floppy · 89636af2

    Now that ide-floppy supports SG_IO we can add support for SCSI ioctls
    (except deprecated SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND and legacy CDROM_SEND_PACKET
    ones - we can add them later iff really needed).
    
    While at it remove handling of CDROMEJECT and CDROMCLOSETRAY ioctls from
    generic_ide_ioctl():
    
    - This prevents ide-{disk,tape,scsi} device drivers from obtaining
      REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC type requests which are currently unsupported by
      these drivers and which are potentially harmful (as reported by Andrew).
    
    - There is no functionality loss since aforementioned ioctls will now be
      handled by idefloppy_ioctl()->scsi_cmd_ioctl() (for devices using
      ide-floppy driver) and by idecd_ioctl->cdrom_ioctl()->scsi_cmd_ioctl()
      (for devices using ide-cd driver).
