Move the mid-layer's -&gt;queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd-&gt;scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

At the point where cmnd is initialized, it is tested for NULL, so it
doesn't have to be tested again here.

A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@match exists@
expression x, E;
identifier fld;
@@

* x-&gt;fld
  ... when != \(x = E\|&amp;x\)
* x == NULL
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

<title>[SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd-&gt;cmnd use request-&gt;cmd buffer</title>

 - struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own.
   This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's
   cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd
   could function without a request attached. So clean that up.

 - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed
   adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd-&gt;cmnd.

 - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left
   that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it
   and is reflected in the patch below is.
   MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB
                      as per the SCSI standard and is not related
                      to the implementation.
   BLK_MAX_CDB.     - The allocated space at the request level

 - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use -&gt;cmnd in a DMA
   Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen.

(*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined
   by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike
   the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly
   true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and
   vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel
   will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's.
   So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command
   scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's

Most of the cpu_to_le32() usage was wrong in one way or another.
Compiler warning on BE builds was just the tip of the iceberg.
This patch attempts to make this driver work on BE though I
don't have the HW to test it.

With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.

Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

I've verified (on my Initio 9100 with a DAT drive) that the
2.6.24-rc8-git6 initio module still hangs on loading.

These fixes (other than the printk) are needed to get the module to load
ok (and work correctly) with my adapter &amp; tape drive.

a) printk cosmetic fix

b) cblk-&gt;sglen needs setting for later DMA I/O routines to use

c) host-&gt;bios_addr needs setting for debug output correctness

d) semaph &amp; semaph_lock initialisation had got lost since 2.6.22

e) since 2.6.22 the bios data address was truncated to 16 bits (needs 20
when shifted left)
