drivers/scsi/advansys.c:71:2: warning:
This patch simply converts direct uses of -use_sg and -request_buffer to
use the wrapper macros. This removes the assumption that the sg list is
overloaded on request_buffer, and that there's an explicit use_sg field.
The -request_buffer assumption is explicit in scsi_debug.c's paranoid
usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sg() assumes buf is a scatterlist array if
use_sg is non-NULL. Change it to an explicit sg arg, instead, to
allow the callers to change to scsi_sglist().

Could you at least put the following patch in scsi-pending
so it can attract some acknowledgment, and retract futile
attempts from people at coding these drivers.
(And also git is better than me in maintaining it synced)

Anybody who can look into converting the m68k NCR53C9x drivers and has
hardware to test (some of) them? I don't think we can afford losing one

not all of those children were created by the SRP transport, and
removing them will cause corruption and an oops when their creator tries
