This patch is from Alan Stern (as560).  It has been rediffed against a
current tree.

This patch allocates a separate buffer for usb-storage to use when
auto-sensing.  Up to now we have been using the sense buffer embedded in a
scsi_cmnd struct, which is dangerous on hosts that (a) don't do
cache-coherent DMA or (b) have DMA alignment restrictions.
