Good start! Just one comment before I look over this and merge it - I'd
prefer keeping this out of sg.c. One of the problems we have right now
are dual pieces of code for sg v3, and I think it would be silly to
continue down this path. Lets keep sg.c as a legacy sg v3 interface
(it'll be the only one except SG_IO in the block layer), and let bsg
take sg v4 and forward.

There's really zero gain in having it in two places.

IOW, put the sg v4 structure in bsg.h.

Great!

I'll get this reviewed and merged as soon as I can, probably monday.
