It isn't clear to me that's the intended use of include/scsi. If it is, it's already being violated, eg by $ find * -type f |xargs grep scsi_host_scan_allowed drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c: if (scsi_host_scan_allowed(shost)) drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c: if (scsi_host_scan_allowed(shost)) drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c: if (scsi_host_scan_allowed(shost)) { drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c: if (!scsi_host_scan_allowed(shost)) include/scsi/scsi_host.h: * scsi_host_scan_allowed - Is scanning of this host allowed include/scsi/scsi_host.h:static inline int scsi_host_scan_allowed(struct Scsi_Host *shost) (a good candidate to be moved to scsi_scan.c, in fact!) scsi_host_state_name, scsi_normalize_sense, scsi_reset_provider, scsi_test_unit_ready, scsi_put_command are all in similar usage to scsi_schedule_eh. There's probably more, I just picked some likely looking candidates. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
