Found a funny in the sym2 driver I'm not sure how to resolve:

                cp->sensecmd[0]         = REQUEST_SENSE;
                cp->sensecmd[1]         = 0;
                if (tp->tinfo.curr.scsi_version <= 2 && cp->lun <= 7)
                        cp->sensecmd[1] = cp->lun << 5;

Thing is, we don't set scsi_version anywhere, so I'm sure sym2 currently
does The Wrong Thing for SCSI-2 drives.  Pulling up the (draft) specs,
this does seem to be something that changed between SCSI-2 and SPC3r15.
Polling some of the other scsi drivers for a solution:

3w-9xxx         Never fills in LUN
53c700          Always fills in LUN
BusLogic        Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
aic7xxx         Same as sym2 (except it sets its equivalent of scsi_version)
dc395x          Always fills in LUN
gdth            Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
ipr             Never fills in LUN
ips             Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
ncr53c8xx       Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
qla1280         Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
sym53c416       Doesn't send REQUEST_SENSE
tmscsim         Always fills in LUN

In other words, the only driver I've found that gets this *right* is
aic7xxx (and 79xx).  Even scsi_error.c doesn't fill in the LUN.  What's
going on here?

the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those
conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse
to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince 
himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep 
he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." -- Mark Twain
