[SCSI] unify SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND implementations
We currently have two implementations of this obsolete ioctl, one in the block layer and one in the scsi code. Both of them have drawbacks. This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version with the missing bits: - argument checking - use scatterlist I/O - set number of retries based on the submitted command This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill the non-S/G I/O path. Jens, what do you think about adding a check for non-S/G I/O in the midlayer? Thanks to Or Gerlitz for testing this patch.

+/**
+ * sg_scsi_ioctl -- handle deprecated SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl
+ * @file: file this ioctl operates on (optional)
+ * @q: request queue to send scsi commands down
+ * @disk: gendisk to operate on (option)
+ * @sic: userspace structure describing the command to perform
+ *
+ * Send down the scsi command described by @sic to the device below
+ * the request queue @q. If @file is non-NULL it's used to perform
+ * fine-grained permission checks that allow users to send down
+ * non-destructive SCSI commands. If the caller has a struct gendisk
+ * available it should be passed in as @disk to allow the low level
+ * driver to use the information contained in it. A non-NULL @disk
+ * is only allowed if the caller knows that the low level driver doesn't
+ * need it (e.g. in the scsi subsystem).
+ *
+ * Notes:
+ * - This interface is deprecated - users should use the SG_IO
+ * interface instead, as this is a more flexible approach to
+ * performing SCSI commands on a device.
+ * - The SCSI command length is determined by examining the 1st byte
+ * of the given command. There is no way to override this.
+ * - Data transfers are limited to PAGE_SIZE
+ * - The length (x + y) must be at least OMAX_SB_LEN bytes long to
+ * accommodate the sense buffer when an error occurs.
+ * The sense buffer is truncated to OMAX_SB_LEN (16) bytes so that
+ * old code will not be surprised.
+ * - If a Unix error occurs (e.g. ENOMEM) then the user will receive
+ * a negative return and the Unix error code in 'errno'.
+ * If the SCSI command succeeds then 0 is returned.
+ * Positive numbers returned are the compacted SCSI error codes (4
+ * bytes in one int) where the lowest byte is the SCSI status.
