This recently changed. Here's the trick:
scsi_set_in_resid_by_actual(cmd, actual);
I.e. if the initiator asked to read "desired" bytes, but the target
could only provide "actual" bytes, this call will set the residual
to (desired - actual). You still need to generate sense data and
return SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION too, if this is required by ssc.
It's not always an error to underflow.
