-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: James Bottomley 3w-xxxx emulates a REQUEST_SENSE response by simply returning nothing. Unfortunately, it's assuming that the REQUEST_SENSE command is implemented with use_sg == 0, which is no longer the case. The oops occurs because it's clearing the scatterlist in request_buffer instead of the memory region. This is fixed by using tw_transfer_internal() to transfer correctly to the scatterlist.
