scsi_request_fn() can be called from softirq context during IO
completion. If it enables interrupts there, HW interrupts can interrupt
softirq processing and queue more IO completion work which can
eventually lead to softlockup reports because IO completion softirq runs
for too long. Keep interrupts disabled in scsi_request_fn().
