Commit 91ebc1facd77 ("scsi: core: remove Scsi_Cmnd typedef") removed
the Scsi_cmnd typedef but it was still mentioned in a paragraph in the
"SCSI mid_level - lower_level driver interface" documentation page.
Remove this obsolete paragraph.

Hi,
Is this documentation page still relevant or should it be removed? I'm asking
since it hasn't been updated in a while and there's mention of 2.6 kernel.
In case it is still relevant, would patches changing the embedded kernel-docs
for references to the kernel-docs in the source files be welcome?
Also, I see that for example, scsi_add_device, has a kernel-doc in this page,
even though there isn't any in the source code. Would a patch moving this
function description to the source code be welcome?
Thanks,
Nícolas

First, Linus Torvalds's thoughts on C coding style can be found in the
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst file.
-Next, there is a movement to "outlaw" typedefs introducing synonyms for
-struct tags. Both can be still found in the SCSI subsystem, but
-the typedefs have been moved to a single file, scsi_typedefs.h to
-make their future removal easier, for example:
-"typedef struct scsi_cmnd Scsi_Cmnd;"

Also, most C99 enhancements are encouraged to the extent they are supported
by the relevant gcc compilers. So C99 style structure and array
initializers are encouraged where appropriate. Don't go too far,
