[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.
