(passthrough) has made sure the backend is non-virtual already.

As I doesn't set cmd->execute_task and SCF_SCSI_DATA_SG_IO_CDB flag, so
the below piece of code should guarantee that my patch only works with
pSCSI, at least, currently. Is it right?

---
passthrough =
(dev->transport->transport_type == TRANSPORT_PLUGIN_PHBA_PDEV);
...

if (!(passthrough || cmd->execute_task ||
(cmd->se_cmd_flags & SCF_SCSI_DATA_SG_IO_CDB)))
goto out_unsupported_cdb;

Sure, I will change it.

Thanks.
