Ouch, I speak and only then do I remember finally now where I saw this
working before. Not in drivers/usb/storage but rather in scsi/ e.g.
http://lxr.linux.no/ident?v=2.6.0-test7;i=scsi_command_size
yields:
http://lxr.linux.no/source/drivers/block/scsi_ioctl.c?v=2.6.0-test7#L530
i.e. the use of such std. C extensions as:
EXPORT_SYMBOL(scsi_command_size);
