OK, here's the patch. It has three sets of changes:
1) Add a function pointer to struct gendisk called hd_name.
2) Make disk_name in fs/partitions/check.c use that function
pointer if its non-null.
3) Change the following drivers to use this method. (adding the
driver specific method and removing the old code in check.c)
drivers/md/lvm.c
drivers/md/md.c
drivers/ide/ide-probe.c
drivers/scsi/sd.c
drivers/block/cpqarray.c
drivers/block/cciss.c
drivers/block/DAC960.c
Let me know what you think. Think there's any chance we
can get this in the main kernel tree?
