I think I know the answer to this, but if I'm wrong all sorts of bad will
happen, so I figured I'd bother the experts to make sure. :)

When the SCSI layers calls a host's command queue function, is there any
possibility that the context will be interrupt context?  Basically, I need
to know if I need spin_lock() or spin_lock_irqsave().  The non-irq safe
version is "much faster" (according to Linus in spinlock.txt).
