3.16.85-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx> commit 28676d869bbb5257b5f14c0c95ad3af3a7019dd5 upstream. Check for a valid direction before starting the request, otherwise we risk running into an assertion in the scsi midlayer checking for valid requests.
