This patch started life as as531 from Alan Stern. It has been rediffed
against the latest tree.
The SCSI people have deprecated the use of scsi_cmnd.serial_number for
anything other than printk. Worse than that, the SCSI core doesn't
always increment the number (when the error handler is running, for
example). So this patch creates a locally-stored value for use in
bulk-only tags. The net result is a simplification, since we no longer
have to save & restore the serial_number value while autosensing.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
