Patch is mostly okay although it still won't win a beaty contest.

Two showstoppers though:

 - the spin_is_locked magic is really, really bogus.  Easiest way to
   avoid this is to have your own spinlock in adpt_hba and use
   scsi_assign_lock to make it the host_lock, too.  With a little
   magic you'll also get per-host locks in the various 2.4 vendor
   trees with that..
 - you're still trying to sneak DPT_TARGET_BUSY back in.

Please fix those two issues and the patch can go in.
