Hmm.  You're only adding one item to the call chain this way and with many
arguments.  I think it would be better to export __scsi_execute_req()
directly and define the wrappers as static inlines in a header.

In which case you won't need the second wrapper even.  So perhaps it would be
a good idea to call the function scsi_execute_req_flags() and add a static
inline wrapper called scsi_execute_req() around it that will pass 0 as flags?
