Before we do anything in this area we need to find an agreement who
owns /usr/include/scsi/ .  Right now that's glibc, and if we want to
change it to the kernel headers we need to find a transition agreement
with the glibc maintainer (aka mostly Uli).

And even then it's quite questionable if the kernel should provide
scsi.h as it's mostly protocol defintions, not actually a kernel
interface.
