It relates the messages to each other.  When you get lots of
interleaved messages like:

[ 3161.441116] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scmd ffff88041a874e70 abort scheduled
[ 3161.444258] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scmd ffff88041a8b3b30 abort scheduled
...
[ 3162.707427] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] aborting command ffff88041a8b3b30
[ 3162.710445] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scmd ffff88041a8b3b30 abort failed, rtn 8195
[ 3162.713092] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] aborting command ffff88041a8dd530
[ 3162.715172] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scmd ffff88041a8dd530 abort failed, rtn 8195
...
[ 3171.052277] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scsi_eh_2: flush retry cmd: ffff88041a8b3b30
[ 3171.054910] sd 2:0:0:2: [sdt] scsi_eh_2: flush retry cmd: ffff88041a8dd530
...
[ 3203.406218] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdr] scmd ffff88041a8214b0 not aborting, host in recovery
[ 3203.406424] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdr] scmd ffff88041a8474f0 not aborting, host in recovery

scmd ties the messages together so you can tell which command
has gotten to which state.  grep works.
