Can you be more specific about sysfs location?  A runtime-writable (via

Well, if it's really important, the same thing should happen with
retries as happened with timeout (it became a request_queue property),
but it could be hacked as a struct scsi_disk one with a corresponding
entry in sd_dis_attrs.

Well, it is already a request property... but assigned at initialization from sd-specific code. sd also passes this through scmd->allowed to rq->retries.

It could become a request_queue property, but that seems like a hack as it is simply passed right back into SCSI EH, for SCSI-specific disposition.
