In 2.5 there's just one request_fn left.

/*
* Function: scsi_initialize_queue()
*
- * Purpose: Selects queue handler function for a device.
+ * Purpose: Sets up the block queue for a device.
*
* Arguments: SDpnt - device for which we need a handler function.
*
* Returns: Nothing
*
* Lock status: No locking assumed or required.
- *
- * Notes: Most devices will end up using scsi_request_fn for the
- * handler function (at least as things are done now).
- * The "block" feature basically ensures that only one of
- * the blocked hosts is active at one time, mainly to work around
- * buggy DMA chipsets where the memory gets starved.
- * For this case, we have a special handler function, which
- * does some checks and ultimately calls scsi_request_fn.
- *
- * The single_lun feature is a similar special case.
- *
- * We handle these things by stacking the handlers. The
- * special case handlers simply check a few conditions,
- * and return if they are not supposed to do anything.
- * In the event that things are OK, then they call the next
- * handler in the list - ultimately they call scsi_request_fn
- * to do the dirty deed.
