[SCSI] use one-element sg list in scsi_send_eh_cmnd

scsi_send_eh_cmnd is the last user of non-sg commands currently.
This patch switches it to a one-element SG list.  Also updates the
kerneldoc comment for scsi_send_eh_cmnd to reflect reality while we're
at it.

Test on my mptsas card, but this should get testing with as many
drivers as possible.

- * scsi_send_eh_cmnd  - send a cmd to a device as part of error recovery.
- * @scmd:	SCSI Cmd to send.

+ *
+ * This function is used to send a scsi command down to a target device
+ * as part of the error recovery process.  If @copy_sense is 0 the command
+ * sent must be one that does not transfer any data.  If @copy_sense is 1
+ * the command must be REQUEST_SENSE and this functions copies out the
+ * sense buffer it got into @scmd->sense_buffer.

  * Return value:
  *    SUCCESS or FAILED or NEEDS_RETRY
