I don't know. Currently it's used only in one place. Actually, I
was thinking about moving it into the function where it's used. But
if it's useful, renaming it to something like SCSI_CMD_CDB_SIZE()
(maybe make it inline function?) and moving to scsi.h shouldn't be any
problem. I think we need to hear other people's opinions. Some
inputs please.

Thanks.
