    This contains the following changes to the SCSI tape driver:
    
    - one buffer is used for each tape (no buffer pool)
    - buffers allocated when needed and freed when device closed
    - common code from read and write moved to a function
    - default maximum number of scatter/gather segments increased to 64
    - tape status set to "no tape" after succesful unload
