Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi
Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley: "This is mostly updates of the usual drivers: UFS, esp_scsi, NCR5380, qla2xxx, lpfc, libsas, hisi_sas. In addition there's a set of mostly small updates to the target subsystem a set of conversions to the generic DMA API, which do have some potential for issues in the older drivers but we'll handle those as case by case fixes. A new myrs driver for the DAC960/mylex raid controllers to replace the block based DAC960 which is also being removed by Jens in this merge window. Plus the usual slew of trivial changes" [ "myrs" stands for "MYlex Raid Scsi". Obviously. Silly of me to even wonder. There's also a "myrb" driver, where the 'b' stands for 'block'.

+4. BSG Support
+------------------
+
+This transport driver supports exchanging UFS protocol information units
+(UPIUs) with a UFS device. Typically, user space will allocate
+struct ufs_bsg_request and struct ufs_bsg_reply (see ufs_bsg.h) as
+request_upiu and reply_upiu respectively. Filling those UPIUs should
+be done in accordance with JEDEC spec UFS2.1 paragraph 10.7.
+*Caveat emptor*: The driver makes no further input validations and sends the
+UPIU to the device as it is. Open the bsg device in /dev/ufs-bsg and
+send SG_IO with the applicable sg_io_v4:
+
+ io_hdr_v4.guard = 'Q';
+ io_hdr_v4.protocol = BSG_PROTOCOL_SCSI;
+ io_hdr_v4.subprotocol = BSG_SUB_PROTOCOL_SCSI_TRANSPORT;
+ io_hdr_v4.response = (__u64)reply_upiu;
+ io_hdr_v4.max_response_len = reply_len;
+ io_hdr_v4.request_len = request_len;
+ io_hdr_v4.request = (__u64)request_upiu;
+
