Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 00/22] blk-mq/libata/scsi: SCSI driver tagging improvements Part I

Currently SCSI low-level drivers are required to manage tags for commands
which do not come via the block layer - libata internal commands would be
an example of one of these. We want to make blk-mq manage these tags also.

There was some work to provide "reserved commands" support in such series
as https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20211125151048.103910-1-hare@suse.de/

This was based on allocating a request for the lifetime of the "internal"
command.

This series tries to solve that problem by not just allocating the request
but also sending it as a request through the block layer. Reasons to do
this:
- Normal flow of a request and also commonality for regular scsi command
  lifetime
- We don't leave request and scsi_cmnd fields dangling as when we just
  allocate and free the request for the lifetime of the "internal" command
- For poll mode support we can only poll in block layer, so could not send
  internal commands on poll mode queues if we did not do this, which is a
  problem
- Can get rid of duplicated code like libsas internal command timeout
  handling

Series part I contains core SCSI midlayer, libata, and libsas changes to
queue libsas "slow" tasks as requests.

Series part II of this series focused on changing libata to queue internal
commands as requests.

Testing:
QEMU with AHCI with disk and cdrom attached, hisi_sas, pm8001.
