          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).
