Quick (and nasty) hack: in scsi/sd.c, if the device has been continuously
busy for say > 1sec, just stop feeding it until it has drained.

Better hack: if the oldest request on the device has been there for say >
1sec, stop feeding until that request has completed.

None of this would be necessary if sequencers were a bit less totalitarian...
