Huh? What additional copy? There is one reply-buffer and that is copied
into the user-buffer should it contain valid data. Just like in your
patch, neither you, nor me touches any of the copy-code. There is also
no changes to how the driver get their data into that buffer, it will
still be copied in both cases.

Only your patch on top of 4.13-rc4. din_xferp (D) is also empty, which is
not taken from the sense-buffer.

This will now create an additional and never used (sizeof(struct
bsg_job) + dd_job_size + SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE - sizeof(struct
scsi_request)) size buffer for each bidirectional BSG request (each FC
request for zFCP for example). I mentioned that in my reply.
I really don't see the point in this exercise. We know the old way
worked well for BSG, no driver has been changed in expectations to now
do DMA to the reply-buffer.. its a custom non-standardised kernel
struct.. there is no HW that would do this (and like I said, the reply
protocol Data is already DMA'ed directly into the user-provided
buffers, if the HW can). And more-over, like you said, later patches
make all allocations on-heap anyway.
If you really want, I can change the first patch to do more of what
Patch 4 does right now, so that there is no on-stack usage, even just
intermediate in a patch-series.
