I guess.  Are these buffers so big that we don't want to make it part of
a structure that just stays allocated?

We should have some validation on the length of the data returned by RTPG in
the case where the buffer is re-kmalloc'ed, we can't kmalloc 4GB - 1 + 4 bytes.
And if the length is too big, it is not a "temporary" failure.
We should maybe only retry once with a larger buffer, rather than potentially
loop forever if the device keeps returning different information.

(I suppose we have the same potential issue with REPORT LUNS as well.)
