It's a magic factor copied from the old code :(

That beeing said I really wonder if we should keep the tracing for
the scsi_requests fields at all.  We have tracing in SCSI, and poking
into these SCSI fields from block code is painful and just screams
layering violations.

Jens, any opinion on just removing the printout of the SCSI CDB
for blktrace?
