Hmm, with this patch I'm still running into the problems I described
here:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/47029

basically, I/Os returned with a DID_RESET status are being requeued in
an incomplete state:

	[ 2362.068342] scsi(5:0:13): OVERRUN status detected 0x7-0x400
	[ 2362.068345] CDB: 0x2a 0x0 0x0 0x0 0xe 0x70
	[ 2362.068347] PID=0x81eeb req=0x0 xtra=0x1c00 -- returning DID_ERROR status!
	[ 2362.068411] scsi(5:0:13): OVERRUN status detected 0x7-0x400
	[ 2362.068413] CDB: 0x2a 0x0 0x0 0x0 0xe 0x70
	[ 2362.068415] PID=0x81eec req=0x0 xtra=0x1c00 -- returning DID_ERROR status!

:(

Thoughts?
