bsg: split handling of SCSI CDBs vs transport requeues
The current BSG design tries to shoe-horn the transport-specific
passthrough commands into the overall framework for SCSI passthrough
requests. This has a couple problems:
- each passthrough queue has to set the QUEUE_FLAG_SCSI_PASSTHROUGH flag
despite not dealing with SCSI commands at all. Because of that these
queues could also incorrectly accept SCSI commands from in-kernel
users or through the legacy SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
- the real SCSI bsg queues also incorrectly accept bsg requests of the
BSG_SUB_PROTOCOL_SCSI_TRANSPORT type
- the bsg transport code is almost unredable because it tries to reuse
different SCSI concepts for its own purpose.
This patch instead adds a new bsg_ops structure to handle the two cases
differently, and thus solves all of the above problems. Another side
effect is that the bsg-lib queues also don't need to embedd a
struct scsi_request anymore.
