Hmmm. Sometimes it pays to RTFM. No, wait, there is no FM. OK, RTFS then. Yes, it looks like I could use them nicely. In fact, it's just what the doctor ordered.

Well, they're used in scsi_ioctl.c and wfd.c, and that's the only place I've been able to find them. But it's a good idea, and it might be the way to save the ccd driver if that's what's eating it.
