Can we use the scsi_get/put_command() functions for allocating a "struct scsi_cmnd" or should we allocate it with kmalloc() or somehow like that?

Sorry, I didn't have time to look at this yet. scsi_get/put_command() sems ok for now, if you have time to look at this now it would be good if you could look at it. It's too late for 2.6.17 already, but having it early in the 2.6.18 cycle would be very helpful.
