Cover letter [PATCH 0/6] ide-tape: refit tape data buffer bits/kill pipelining-v2

Hi Bart,

here's another patchset that contains some other fixes along with the changes you suggested. We have now a tape->merge_bh buffer which is a singly linked list of bh's and tape->bh is a pointer within that list. The remaining pipelining functions have been readjusted to handle the merge buffer. I guess, that was it, pipelining is gone.
