Sparing a few words on why I voted on this topic, As part of me being involved in fast RDMA based initiators (iSER, SRP) I can say that SCSI layer became a real performance bottleneck. Implementations bypassing SCSI has started to pop-up lately. scsi-mq can and should boost performance and it is important that we work also on LLDs to provide a total solution. Sagi.
