It's probably a mid-layer function which can be called by low-level drivers, isn't it? I would try make a patch on my own (after vacations) but I don't have a clue about what needs to be done and especially about what one should not forget in such a function. Maybe, the answer can be found somewhere around scsi_done which seems to restart I/O, too? Would it be a nice idea collect that code from there putting it into a separate function (if this function does not already exist) and let it be called from the scsi_done path as well as from low-level drivers if they wish to resume I/O?
