This patch converts the SCSI I/O path from the iocb-centric interfaces to the common I/O submission path which supports native SLI-4 WQEs. A wrapper routine is put in place to distinguish SLI-3 from SLI. If SLI-3, the same iocb-centric paths are used, perhaps with refactored code that is explicitly for SLI-3. For SLI-4, any iocb-related formatting is replaced by wqe-based formatting, although much of that is addressed by the common wqe templates in the SLI-4 path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
