ide-cd: remove the internal 64k buffer
This removes the internal ide-cd buffer and falls back to read-ahead block layer
capabilities. Thorough testing (cd burning, dvd read, raw read) gives with the
bufferless mode marginally better performance in addition to simplified code.
bufferless:
dd: reading `/dev/hdc': Input/output error
6238+0 records in
6238+0 records out
204406784 bytes (204 MB) copied, 259.891 s, 787 kB/s

with the old buffer (2.6.25-rc1):
