Add a special exception module parameter to allow working around this issue. Based on slightly different patch by Knut Petersen.

It might even be a result of the use-after-free problem with the elevator. At any rate, it's clear that the crash in the refcounting log you posted occurred because scsi_setup_blk_pc_cmnd() called scsi_prep_state_check(), which tried to dereference the NULL pointer. Would you like to try this patch to see if it fixes the problem? As I said before, I'm not certain it's the best thing to do, but it worked on my system.
