Forget this patch too. We just combine some paths.

Hi Jens and James,
As you know a side effect of SCSI using REQ_BLOCK_PC is that commands
that used to originate from SCSI do not obey the retries value, and we
now add extra processing of failures in scsi_io_completion.
The patch below adds a retry count on the request which is used like the
timeout value. And it changes scsi_generic_done to always complete the
entire command which emulates the old behavior we had with
scsi_wait_req/scsi_do_req where scsi_io_completeion does not process the
error and request additional retries.
Patch was made against scsi-rc-fixes.
