request->rq_disk is only set for FS requests or BLOCK_PC requests
originating from the generic block layer scsi ioctls.  It's not set
for requests origination from other soures or internal cache flush
commands implemented by the patch I'll send after this.

So instead of using it to get at the private data in do_virtblk_request
setup queue->queuedata and use it.
