03_scsi_REQ_SPECIAL_semantic_scsi_queue_insert.patch scsi_queue_insert() used to use blk_insert_request() for requeueing requests. This depends on the unobvious behavior of blk_insert_request() setting REQ_SPECIAL and REQ_SOFTBARRIER when requeueing. This patch makes scsi_queue_insert() use blk_requeue_request(). As REQ_SPECIAL means special requests and REQ_SOFTBARRIER is automatically handled by blk layer now, no flag needs to be set. Note that scsi_queue_insert() now calls scsi_run_queue() itself, and the prototype of the function is added right above scsi_queue_insert(). This is temporary, as later requeue path consolidation patchset removes scsi_queue_insert(). By adding temporary prototype, we can do away with unnecessarily moving functions.
