The legay ide driver has been replace with libata starting in 2003 and has
been scheduled for removal for a while.  Finally kill it off so that we
can start cleaning up various bits of cruft it forced on the block layer.

We can remove 'q' from blk_execute_rq as well after the previous change
in blk_execute_rq_nowait.

And more importantly it never really was needed to start with given
that we can trivial derive it from struct request.

<title>compat_ioctl: move HDIO ioctl handling into drivers/ide</title>

<content type='text'>
Most of the HDIO ioctls are only used by the obsolete drivers/ide
subsystem, these can be handled by changing ide_cmd_ioctl() to be aware
of compat mode and doing the correct transformations in place and using
it as both native and compat handlers for all drivers.

The SCSI drivers implementing the same commands are already doing
this in the drivers, so the compat_blkdev_driver_ioctl() function
is no longer needed now.

The BLKSECTSET and HDIO_GETGEO_BIG ioctls are not implemented
in any driver any more and no longer need any conversion.

<content type='text'>
MTIOCPOS and MTIOCGET are incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit user
space, and traditionally have been translated in fs/compat_ioctl.c.

To get rid of that translation handler, move a corresponding
implementation into each of the four drivers implementing those commands.

The interesting part of that is now in a new linux/mtio.h header that
wraps the existing uapi/linux/mtio.h header and provides an abstraction
to let drivers handle both cases easily. Using an in_compat_syscall()
check, the caller does not have to keep track of whether this was
called through .unlocked_ioctl() or .compat_ioctl().

Variable buffer_size is being assigned but is never used hence it is
redundant and can be removed.

Cleans up clang warning:
warning: variable 'buffer_size' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

Just set up the show callback in the tty_operations, and use
proc_create_single_data to create the file without additional
boilerplace code.
