[PATCH 1/2] block: export __make_request

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>
Date: 2011-09-11 14:50:56
Also in: dm-devel, lkml

Avoid the hacks need for request based device mappers currently by simply
exporting the symbol instead of trying to get it through the back door.

Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
