It's currently defined several places throughout the block layer and I was about to introduce another instance. So let's make this generic. Second patch works around the limitations in the zfcp hardware by introducing a limit on the number of integrity scatterlist elements. Christof will post a separate patch that updates the zfcp driver to take advantage of this. I'd prefer we if could feed everything, including the SCSI changes, through the block tree. I have had to change some existing interfaces so a post-merge tree will not cut it and compatibility wrappers seem like an overkill for this. -- Martin K. Petersen Oracle Linux Engineering
