Plugging appears to be broken for the scsi layer. I suspect its bust in 2.2
as well but 2.3.39 is getting the I/O out faster.

I have lots of raid folks bitching because they cant get nice 64K I/O's
from Linux which is what they all want (that or 128K I/O's). I think its
all related somewhere, but Im not a scsi layer guru
