How can I review this? What you're proposing certainly isn't a
backport. What you're actually trying to do is to port around this
commit:
ommit bc85dc500f9df9b2eec15077e5046672c46adeaa
Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>
Date: Thu May 1 16:51:03 2014 +0200
scsi: remove scsi_end_request
Have you tried simply backporting that to your tree and then applying
to work around?
