The commit message of this commit says it's a workaround for a problem with lsi: > - when a read is aborted due to a mark/EOF/EOD/EOM, the len reported to > controller can be 0. LSI controller emulation doesn't know how to manage > this. A workaround found is to call the completion routine with > SCSI_REASON_DONE just after calling it with SCSI_REASON_DATA with len=0.
