Move the SCSI execution functions to use a struct for passing in optional args. This commit adds the new struct, temporarily converts scsi_execute() and scsi_execute_req() ands a new helper, scsi_execute_cmd(), which takes the scsi_exec_args struct. There should be no change in behavior. We no longer allow users to pass in any request->rq_flags value, but they were only passing in RQF_PM which we do support by allowing users to pass in the BLK_MQ_REQ flags used by blk_mq_alloc_request(). Subsequent commits will convert scsi_execute() and scsi_execute_req() users to the new helpers then remove scsi_execute() and scsi_execute_req().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
