if they prefer just pulling in all of SCSI for it, well then I guess
it's pointless to move the header bits. Seems very heavy handed to me,
though.

It might be heavy handed for the 3 remaining users of drivers/ide,

Brutal :-)

Heh. I noticed a similar sense buffer use in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c
too. Is this okay under the same considerations?
This is going from somewhat crazy to pretty nuts, imho. I guess in practical=
 terms it doesn=E2=80=99t matter that much, since most folks would be using s=
r. I still think a split would be vastly superior. Just keep the scsi code i=
n drivers/scsi/ and make it independently selectable.
