Alright, I need some explanation on these changes to sbp2. Lots of things
ripped out.

I can understand that TYPE_RDC is what we had as TYPE_SDAD. Now, in our
tree for TYPE_RDC, we converted it to TYPE_DISK. We also did a lot of mode
conversions for DISK/RDC/ROM types.

My question is, why were the conversions all removed? The conversions, as
far as I know, are related to SBP protocol, and not SCSI, so why would the
SCSI maintainers feel the need to rip out an important part of the SBP2
driver? Note, this isn't really a SCSI device, or a scsi host controller.
It's a protocol translation layer.
