03_scsi_REQ_SPECIAL_semantic_scsi_requeue_command.patch scsi_requeue_request() used to use blk_insert_request() for requeueing requests. This behavior depends on the unobvious behavior of blk_insert_request() setting REQ_SPECIAL and REQ_SOFTBARRIER when requeueing. This patch makes scsi_requeue_request() use blk_requeue_request() and explicitly set REQ_SOFTBARRIER. As REQ_SPECIAL now means special requests, the flag is not set on requeue.
