It turns out this patch is dependent on previous
sd: disentangle barriers in SCSI (02)

and that one is dependent on the previous-previous one: 
block: add protocol discriminators to requests and queues. (01)

but the middle one (02) does not apply it looks like there is a missing
hunk for scsi_lib.c in the first (01)

The before last sync line: 
        blk_queue_protocol(q, BLK_PROTOCOL_SCSI);
is missing from (01). Any thing else I need?

So I guess my first complain is that these should have been
a series to denote dependency. Also I think an email with 
deeper explanation of where you are going with these, and 
what is the motivation could be nice.

Apart from that:

Ouch! ;) That patch hurts.

What is the time frame for these changes are they for immediate
inclusion into scsi-misc and into 2.6.24 merge window? Before
scsi_data_buff, sglist, bidi, Mike's execute_async_cleanup ... ?

I do not like this patch. I think that if your motivation was
to make sd/sr and other ULD's more independent of scsi-ml than
you achieved the opposite. 5 exported functions and intimate
knowledge of scsi_lib internals. Lots of same cut and past code 
in ULD's. Interdependence of scsi_lib.c with it's ULD's. Will 
make it hard for scsi_lib to change without touching ULD's.
(And there are lots of scheduled changes :-))

What about below approach? 
What I tried to do is keep scsi_lib private, export a more
simple API for ULD's. And keep common code common.
The code was compiled and booted but I did not do any error 
injection and/or low memory condition testing.

[PATCH 3/3] move ULD attachment into the prep function


  - scsi_lib.c prep_fn will only support blk_pc_commands.
  - Let ULD's that support blk_fs_request() overload prep_fn.
    sd.c and sr.c will do so.
  - scsi_lib exports a scsi_prep_cmnd() helper that will take
    a request and allocate and return a struct scsi_cmnd.
  - If ULD decides it wants to fail the command allocated above
    It must call a new export scsi_prep_return() to cancel the
    request and return the command to free store.
