Simon Kirby reported that on his RAID setup with idedisk underneath the box OOMs after a couple of days of runtime. Running with CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK pointed to idedisk_prep_fn() which unconditionally allocates an ide_cmd struct. However, ide_requeue_and_plug() can be called more than once per request, either from the request issue or the IRQ handler path and do blk_peek_request() ends up in idedisk_prep_fn() repeatedly, allocating a struct ide_cmd everytime and "forgetting" the previous pointer. Make sure the code reuses the old allocated chunk.
