The current medium access timeout counter will be increased for

This sentence describes multiple failed commands as a single failure.
That's confusing to me. Did you perhaps intend "for a single device
failure"?

Can this function be moved up such that we don't need a new forward declaration?

Why, but of course.
I just put is here to be next to the original scsi_eh_action() function.

It seems to me that @reset does not trigger a reset of the medium access counter
but rather of the variable that prevents the medium access error counter to be
incremented?

Correct. Will be fixing up the description.

Did you perhaps intend "once per device per SCSI EH run"?

Yes.

The name of this new member is confusing to me. How about using the name
"ignore_medium_access_errors" instead? And since this is a boolean, how
about using true and false in assignments to this variable?

Ok, will be doing so.
