 The duplicated code path is in scsi_queue_insert(), and the the
function is removed by later requeue path consolidation patchset.  So,
I don't think separating out scsi_requeue_request() is necessary.
However, I'm thinking about setting REQ_SOFTBARRIER right after
allocating cmd in prep_fn().  So that we don't have to set
REQ_SOFTBARRIER in three different places.  Also, IMHO, it better
represents the purpose of REQ_SOFTBARRIER.

 Thanks a lot for your input.  :-)
