[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.
