Martin K. Petersen db007fc5e2 [SCSI] Command protection operation
Controllers that support DMA of protection information must be told
explicitly how to handle the I/O.  The controller has no knowledge of
the protection capabilities of the target device so this information
must be passed in the scsi_cmnd.

 - The protection operation tells the HBA whether to generate, strip or
   verify protection information.

 - The protection type tells the HBA which layout the target is
   formatted with.  This is necessary because the controller must be
   able to correctly interpret the included protection information in
   order to verify it.

 - When a scsi_cmnd is reused for error handling the protection
   operation must be cleared and saved while error handling is in
   progress.

 - prot_op and prot_type are placed in an existing hole in scsi_cmnd
   and don't cause the structure to grow.
