scsi: megaraid_sas: EEDP Escape Mode Support for SAS3.5 Generic Megaraid Controllers
An UNMAP command on a PI formatted device will leave the Logical Block Application
Tag and Logical Block Reference Tag as all F's (for those LBAs that are unmapped).
To avoid IO errors if those LBAs are subsequently read before they are written with
valid tag fields, the MPI SCSI IO requests need to set the EEDPFlags element EEDP
Escape Mode field, Bits [7:6] appropriately. A value of 2 should be set to disable
all PI checks if the Logical Block Application Tag is 0xFFFF for PI types 1 and 2.
A value of 3 should be set to disable all PI checks if the Logical Block Application
Tag is 0xFFFF and the Logical Block Reference Tag is 0xFFFFFFFF for PI type 3.
