Umm...   What about adding a new field to
    struct {
        Scsi_Cmnd       *cmnd;                  /* pending request */
        ushort          service;                /* service */
    } cmd_tab[GDTH_MAXCMDS];                    /* table of pend. reques
in gdth_ha_str?  It's not that we couldn't change size of that animal and
AFAICS anything that might be passed to gdth_sync_event() would have to
be extracted from ha->cmd_tab[] anyway...

BTW, what uses values stored in gdth_ctr_vtab[]?  It's static and gdth.[ch]
never read its elements, only set them...
