Patch: linux-2.5.30: return hd_driveid to <linux/hdreg.h>

        IDE-108 moved struct hd_driveid from linux/hdreg.h to
linux/ide.h. However, user level code in pcmcia-cs-3.2.0/cardmgr/ide-info.c
refers to hd_driveid, and including <linux/ide.h> results in a flood
of conflicts with GNU C library headers.

        The following patch returns struct hd_driveid to include/linux/hdreg.h
and changes its u{8,16,32,64} references to __u{8,16,32,64} (which are
types that the linux include files export for user level programs).

        I have rebuilt the core kernel, drivers/{ide,scsi} and
pcmcia-cs-3.2.0 with this change. It fixes the pcmcia-cs-3.2.0
compilation problems and does not appear to cause any new compilation
errors in the kernel.
