Make scsi_transfer_length() take a scsi_data_buffer argument so the

This is the data integrity patch series originally submitted for 3.16.
It has been rebased on top of the current 3.17 SCSI queue tree. I

from a code cleanup in the sd prot_op code there are no functional

For commands like REQ_COPY we need a way to pass extra information along
with each bio. Like integrity metadata this information must be
available at the bottom of the stack so bi_private does not suffice.
Rename the existing bi_integrity field to bi_special and make it a union
so we can have
None of the filesystems appear interested in using the integrity tagging
feature. Potentially because very few storage devices actually permit
using the application tag space.
Remove the tagging functions.

Make the choice of checksum a per-I/O property by introducing a flag
that can be inspected by the SCSI layer. There are several reasons for
this:
1. It allows us to switch choice of checksum without unloading and
reloading the HBA driver.
2. During error recovery we need to be able to tell

A set of flags introduced in the block layer enable better control over
how protection information is handled. These flags are useful for both
