The advantage of my current approach is that there are two SCSI drivers
(for acorn and i2o) that use copies of this table but that live outside
of drivers/scsi.  They already include scsi.h, and it's easy to make
them include scsi_dataout.h.  For the files inside drivers/scsi, it's
easy to see how to make them depend on scsi_dataout.o, but it's not
obvious to me how it should work for files that live elsewhere.  Am I
missing something obvious?
