Jens,
After rechecking the function definition we can't return an error as add_disk 
is declared void. Should I change the function to an int and then return an 
error. My thinking was that there is no good way to return an error code without
a breakage in the functions that  call add_disk.

Please don't top post...

It's a big job, it requires properly checking and updating all block drivers. But yes, that is what would be required in removing that TODO.
