- otherwise
scsi_eh_scmd_add(scmd, 0) is invoked for the command. See
- [1-3] for details of this funciton.

[1-2-2] Completing a scmd w/ timeout
- Fine-grained EH callbacks
LLDD can implement fine-grained EH callbacks and let SCSI
midlayer drive error handling and call appropriate callbacks.
- This will be dicussed further in [2-1].
+ This will be discussed further in [2-1].
- eh_strategy_handler() callback
This is one big callback which should perform whole error
again.
To achieve these goals, EH performs recovery actions with increasing
-severity. Some actions are performed by issueing SCSI commands and
+severity. Some actions are performed by issuing SCSI commands and
others are performed by invoking one of the following fine-grained
hostt EH callbacks. Callbacks may be omitted and omitted ones are
considered to fail always.
layer of failure of the scmds.

On completion, the handler should have made lower layers forget about
all failed scmds and either ready for new commands or offline. Also,
except for #1 must be implemented by eh_strategy_handler().
