I guess it could be OK, but it then deserves a big fat comment
describing why it is ok.

Don't copy stuff from SCSI just because you can, it's allowed to fix
things up along the way! I'd propose adding blk_rq_timed_out_timer()
ala:
static void blk_rq_timed_out_timer(unsigned long data)
{
struct request *rq = (struct request *) data;
blk_rq_timed_out(rq);
}
and using that to get rid of the cast.

I thought I just did :-)
Delete the timer first, the API you are proposing isn't very nice.
