I could submit them, but there is one outstanding problem I would like to solve first. Maybe you can suggest a solution. The problem is how to handle SG_IOCTL calls. It seems that the only safe thing to do is to force an autoresume and prevent the device from autosuspending until the device file is closed. Unfortunately the SG_IOCTL stuff is all handled inside the block layer, and there's no apparent way (other than some dreadful hack) of passing the necessary information down to the SCSI layer. Should we ignore this issue and submit the patches anyway?
