This patch prevents that the following warning is reported when running the
libiscsi tests against the vdisk_blockio handler:
Refused bio with invalid length 4080 and/or offset 16.

Since this function is only used by the vdisk_fileio handler, reflect this
in the function name.

The exec_req_fifo patches have been removed some time ago. Hence also remove
the code that depends on these patches having been applied. See also commit
78d6da4517 ("scst: Remove obsolete exec_req_fifo kernel patches"; r8022).

pr_warning() has been removed from kernel v5.5. Hence use pr_warn() instead
of pr_warning().

Instead of trying to fix the regressions introduced upstream, stay close
to the upstream code and let the upstream maintainers fix regressions.

Copying Module.symvers is the oldest supported method for building external
kernel modules that depend on another external kernel module. Since support
for that method will be removed from Linux kernel v5.5, use
KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS instead to specify the external symbols SCST kernel
modules depend on. Support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS was introduced in
upstream kernel v2.6.26 so this patch drops support for kernels before
v2.6.26.

This patch adds support for kernel module namespaces. This patch is essential
when using SCST in combination with kernel version v5.4 or later.

Instead of only checking the mlnx-ofed-kernel-dkms, also check the
mlnx-ofed-kernel-modules package name.
