ide-disk: fix flush requests (take 2)
commit 813a0eb233ee67d7166241a8b389b6a76f2247f9

ide: switch idedisk_prepare_flush() to use REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE requests
...
broke flush requests.
Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not
a very brilliant idea:
- idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait
for it to be completed
- there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue
Fix the problem (per hints from James Bottomley) by:
- dynamically allocating ide_task_t instance using kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC)
- adding new taskfile flag (IDE_TFLAG_DYN)
- calling kfree() in ide_end_drive_command() if IDE_TFLAG_DYN is set
(while at it rename 'args' to 'task' and fix whitespace damage)
[ This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather
critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ]
Thanks to Sebastian Siewior and Christoph Hellwig for reporting the
problem and testing patches (extra thanks to Sebastian for bisecting
it to the guilty commmit).
