Merge branch 'trivial-2.6.23' of git://git.kernel.dk/data/git/linux-2.6-block
* 'trivial-2.6.23' of git://git.kernel.dk/data/git/linux-2.6-block:
Documentation/block/barrier.txt is not in sync with the actual code: - blk_queue_ordered() no longer has a gfp_mask parameter - blk_queue_ordered_locked() no longer exists - sd_prepare_flush() looks slightly different
Use list_for_each_entry() instead of list_for_each() in the block device
Make a "menuconfig" out of the Kconfig objects "menu, ..., endmenu",
block/Kconfig already has its own "menuconfig" so remove these
Use menuconfigs instead of menus, so the whole menu can be disabled at once
cfq-iosched: fix async queue behaviour
unexport bio_{,un}map_user
Remove legacy CDROM drivers
[PATCH] fix request->cmd == INT cases
cciss: add new controller support for P700m
