Boaz Harrosh 6f9a35e2da [SCSI] bidirectional command support
At the block level bidi request uses req->next_rq pointer for a second
bidi_read request.
At Scsi-midlayer a second scsi_data_buffer structure is used for the
bidi_read part. This bidi scsi_data_buffer is put on
request->next_rq->special. Struct scsi_cmnd is not changed.

- Define scsi_bidi_cmnd() to return true if it is a bidi request and a
  second sgtable was allocated.

- Define scsi_in()/scsi_out() to return the in or out scsi_data_buffer
  from this command This API is to isolate users from the mechanics of
  bidi.

- Define scsi_end_bidi_request() to do what scsi_end_request() does but
  for a bidi request. This is necessary because bidi commands are a bit
  tricky here. (See comments in body)

- scsi_release_buffers() will also release the bidi_read scsi_data_buffer

- scsi_io_completion() on bidi commands will now call
  scsi_end_bidi_request() and return.

- The previous work done in scsi_init_io() is now done in a new
  scsi_init_sgtable() (which is 99% identical to old scsi_init_io())
  The new scsi_init_io() will call the above twice if needed also for
  the bidi_read command. Only at this point is a command bidi.

- In scsi_error.c at scsi_eh_prep/restore_cmnd() make sure bidi-lld is not
  confused by a get-sense command that looks like bidi. This is done
  by puting NULL at request->next_rq, and restoring.

[jejb: update to sg_table and resolve conflicts
also update to blk-end-request and resolve conflicts]
