SubjectRe: [REGRESSION] 28676d869bbb (scsi: sg: check for valid direction before starting the request) breaks mtx tape library control

I can verify that patch on top of git head (as of a few hours ago) does
function properly.

It didn't apply directly on top of 4.12 but even I can handle fixing
that up. The result (just deleting the function and changing the call
to a check for hp->dxfer_len >= SZ_256M) works fine and is at the end.

So thanks. If this goes in, please CC to stable.
