Several block drivers need to initialize the driver-private data after having called blk_get_request() and before .prep_rq_fn() is called, e.g. when submitting a REQ_OP_SCSI_* request. Avoid that that initialization code has to be repeated after every blk_get_request() call by adding a new callback function to struct request_queue.
Can we please still have a initialize_rq mq_op for the blk-mq path to avoid using the operation vectors directly in the requeuest_queue for blk-mq?
