    convert st to always send scatterlists and kill scsi_request
    usage.
    
    This is the same as last time as it was posted, but with Kai's patches
    merged and we now pass the bytes value to scsi_execute_async.
    
    TODO:
    
    - move DIO code to common place or make block layers usable for ULDs.
    - move buffer allocation code to common place for all ULDs to use. And
    make buffer allocation code handle all queue limits so we can find
    out about problems before calling scsi_execute_async.
    - move indirect (copy_to/from_user) paths commone place or make block
    layers usable for ULDs.
