  o SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE negative oops

- can oops the kernel if incorrect parameters passed

Douglas Gilbert:
  o SCSI constants.c

- fixes a mismerge that lost us the report luns sense

Mark Haverkamp:
  o Work around aacraid FW problem

- can corrupt data for >4GB machines

Mike Anderson:
  o Add release function to sd for scsi_disk structure

- Ongoing fixes to refcounting issues which cause oopses on surprise
ejection of USB (and other) SCSI devices.

Mike Christie:
  o fix oops caused when writing to the rescan attribute

Patrick Mansfield:
  o SCSI: limit mode sense usage

- required to make some USB devices work by preventing them from
receiving the cache mode sense command
