Ah.. with later requeue path consolidation patches, all requests get their sense buffer cleared during requeueing, which, IMHO, is more logical. Moving scsi_init_cmd_errh() should come after the patch. Sorry. :-) I'll make another take of this patchset (maybe subset) after issues are resolved. I'll split and reorder relocation of scsi_init_cmd_errh then.
