Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-misc-2.6
Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley: "This is primarily another round of driver updates (lpfc, bfa, fcoe, ipr) plus a new ufshcd driver. There shouldn't be anything controversial in here (The final deletion of scsi proc_ops which caused some build breakage has been held over until the next merge window to give us more time to stabilise it). I'm afraid, with me moving continents at exactly the wrong time, anything submitted after the merge window opened has been held over to the next merge window." * tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-misc-2.6: (63 commits) [SCSI] ipr: Driver version 2.5.3 [SCSI] ipr: Increase alignment boundary of command blocks [SCSI] ipr: Increase max concurrent oustanding commands [SCSI] ipr: Remove unnecessary memory barriers [SCSI] ipr: Remove unnecessary interrupt clearing on new adapters [SCSI] ipr: Fix target id allocation re-use problem [SCSI] atp870u, mpt2sas, qla4xxx use pci_dev->revision [SCSI] fcoe: Drop the rtnl_mutex before calling fcoe_ctlr_link_up [SCSI] bfa: Update the driver version to 3.0.23.0 [SCSI] bfa: BSG and User interface fixes.

MT_ST_SYSV sets the SYSV semantics (mode)
