Hi Doug,

I run test for sg and sd drivers with both sg_tst_excl and sg_tst_excl2
on kernel vanilla 3.10.9 with mypatches included on Fedora19 x86_64
baremachine.
* I've tried several times with different -w and -n setting, no failure
for sg driver found.
* It's easy to find failure on both patched and non-patched kernel for
sd driver with the following test command:
    ./sg_tst_excl -w 3 -n 2000 -t 16 -x $1 &
    ./sg_tst_excl -w 3 -n 2000 -t 16 $1 &
    ./sg_tst_excl -w 0 -n 2000 -t 16 $1 &
    ./sg_tst_excl -w -1 -n 2000 -t 16 $1 &
    ./sg_tst_excl -w -2 -n 2000 -t 16 $1 &
I think option '-w 0/-1/-2' is significant to trigger the failure, since
when I only use '-w >0', test usually passed.


Thanks,
Vaughan
