I think that this is a bug.

This patch is against the bsg branch in the Jens' git tree.

I guess that it would be nice to do more cleanups on these parts.

Subject: [PATCH] fix read ENODATA bug

This patch fixes a bug that read() gives ENODATA even with a blocking
file descriptor when there are no commands pending.

This also includes some cleanups.
