Tomo Hi.

Thanks for doing this. It was requested before by few people.

I have one small request please? This is to help me  with my "sense" effort.
(See here: http://git.open-osd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=open-osd.git;a=shortlog;h=boaz_sense_effort)
Could you change it that a struct scsi_cmnd * is passed to the new API, instead of the
u8 * directly. This is because I'm removing the buffer at scsi_cmnd. Something like:

extern void scsi_build_sense_buffer(struct scsi_cmnd *, int desc, u8 key, u8 asc, u8 ascq);

If you do this then my patches get that much smaller.
Thanks
Boaz
