What tree is this against?  I can't see any specificc BSG support in qemu.

Even more I think all this in the wrong place.  The only reason
SG_IO support was shoe-horned into raw-posix is that we only had -drive
and no way to specify other devices.  We now have -device and a scsi
generic device should be just that without an attached driver, so that
we can get rid of all the special casing for sd devices.
