There needs to be a sync point anyway and there's one more patchset on
top of block-unify-sector-and-data_len involving ide changes (the
block-peek-fetch one), so if both get acked by Jens, it would be
easier to simply branch out from there.  From there on, I don't expect
too much disruption to ide from further block layer changes, so things
should be okay.

Thanks.
