I'm not at all convinced of the wisdom of doing this for an ancient
driver: this thing is presumably x86 and ancient in which case it will
never fail anyway.
However, for the future, a mapping error is transient, meaning we want
the command retried, not errored, so from queuecommand you return
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY to induce a pause and retry.
