Rrr, what a girl got to do to get a one liner in the tree around here.

You are the maintainer. Please you decide. I have sent both versions of
the patch, one hard coded 260 everywhere, second use of SCSI_MAX_VARLEN_CDB_SIZE.
As it stands now SCSI_MAX_VARLEN_CDB_SIZE definition is already in the kernel,
but the use of it is not. I have proved that the scsi standard do defines this
limit, and the confusion about it just proves that it should be defined.

[
SCSI_Primary_Commands-3-spc3r23
section 4.3.3 The variable length CDB formats:

"The ADDITIONAL CDB LENGTH field specifies the number of additional CDB bytes. 
This value in the ADDITIONAL CDB LENGTH field shall be a multiple of 4"
]

The 2 patches are here:

Please include the version you like. It looks like James has no farther response
on this issue.
