if you are at it?
- 	memset(orb->cdb, 0, 12);
+ 	memset(orb->cdb, 0, sizeof(orb->cdb));

I'm not sure what you mean. But orb->cdb is 12 bytes, and setting max_cmd_len in
host template insures midlayer will never send a command bigger then that. So
->cmd_len will never be bigger then host->max_cmd_len. BLK_MAX_CDB should not
be used here.

But I don't see .max_cmd_len set in this file, is it set elsewhere?
