4451e47262 [SCSI] sd: pause in sd_spinup_disk for slow USB devices
This patch adds a delay tailored for USB flash devices that are slow to
initialize their firmware.  The symptom is a repeated Unit Attention with
ASC=0x28 (Not Ready to Ready transition).  The patch will wait for up to 5
seconds for such devices to become ready.  Normal devices won't send the
repeated Unit Attention sense key and hence won't trigger the patch.

This fixes a problem with James Roberts-Thomson's USB device, and I've
seen several reports of other devices exhibiting the same symptoms --
presumably they will be helped as well.

ea73a9f239 [SCSI] convert sd to scsi_execute_req (and update the scsi_execute_req API)
This one removes struct scsi_request entirely from sd.  In the process,
I noticed we have no callers of scsi_wait_req who don't immediately
normalise the sense, so I updated the API to make it take a struct
scsi_sense_hdr instead of simply a big sense buffer.

1cf72699c1 [SCSI] convert the remaining mid-layer pieces to scsi_execute_req
After this, we just have some drivers, all the ULDs and the SPI
transport class using scsi_wait_req().

7fce2cf62e [SCSI] Redundant this_count check in sd_init_command()
I was going over the scsi I/O submit path, when sd_init_command
construct the scsi command, this_count is already checked in the
previous else if clause.  Why does it need to check it again in
the last else block?

Patch to delete the spurious check.

631e8a1398 [SCSI] TYPE_RBC cache fixes (sbp2.c affected)
a) TYPE_SDAD renamed to TYPE_RBC and taken to scsi.h
	b) in sbp2.c remapping of TYPE_RPB to TYPE_DISK turned off
	c) relevant places in midlayer and sd.c taught to accept TYPE_RBC
	d) sd.c::sd_read_cache_type() looks into page 6 when dealing with
TYPE_RBC - these guys have writeback cache flag there and are not guaranteed
to have page 8 at all.
	e) sd_read_cache_type() got an extra sanity check - it checks that
it got the page it asked for before using its contents.  And screams if
mismatch had happened.  Rationale: there are broken devices out there that
are "helpful" enough to go for "I don't have a page you've asked for, here,
have another one".  For example, PL3507 had been caught doing just that...
	f) sbp2 sets sdev->use_10_for_rw and sdev->use_10_for_ms instead
of bothering to remap READ6/WRITE6/MOD_SENSE, so most of the conversions
in there are gone now.

	Incidentally, I wonder if USB storage devices that have no
mode page 8 are simply RBC ones.  I haven't touched that, but it might
be interesting to check...

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
