[PATCH] 2.5.68: Don't include SCSI block ioctls on non-scsi systems

Unless I'm missing something, there doesn't seem to be a good reason
for the block system to include SCSI ioctls unless there's a SCSI
block device (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD) in the system.

This is good for embedded systems with tight memory.
