af55ff675a [SCSI] sd: Support for SCSI disk (SBC) Data Integrity Field
Support for controllers and disks that implement DIF protection
information:

 - During command preparation the RDPROTECT/WRPROTECT must be set
   correctly if the target has DIF enabled.

 - READ(6) and WRITE(6) are not supported when DIF is on.

 - The controller must be told how to handle the I/O via the
   protection operation field in scsi_cmnd.

 - Refactor the I/O completion code that extracts failed LBA from the
   returned sense data and handle DIF failures correctly.

 - sd_dif.c implements the functions required to prepare and complete
   requests with protection information attached.
