Who is the target audience/user of those facilities? a) The kernel itself needing to read/write SES pages? b) A user space application using sysfs to read/write SES pages? At the moment SES device management is done via an application (user-space) and a user-space library used by the application and /dev/sgX to send SCSI commands to the SES device. One could have a very good argument to not bloat the kernel with this but leave it to a user-space application and a library to do all this and communicate with the SES device via the kernel's /dev/sgX.
