Looks good.  I didn't think about keeping the reuse and dealing with it
in osst_do_scsi, but this obviously works.  Please tell if you're
confident enough with it so we can put it in the for-2.6.17 tree.

Long-term we should probably get rid of the request reuse anyway,
because it's not nessecary anymore and would make the code more
readable.

Thanks a lot for the quick patch Willem!
