If we use blk_rq_map_kern() the failed rq must be finished after the sense rq is finished because that's when the bio is copied back if it was copied. Before sense_rq completion, the sense buffer doesn't contain any valid data. Anyways, I'll review your patchset and integrate it with mine. Please standby a bit.
