This will have a similar effect as (io_uring)hipri. Only SCSI READ and
WRITE commands will have the SGV4_FLAG_HIPRI set (not UNMAP (trim) nor

Low Level Driver (LLD) that "owns" the device also needs to support
hipri (also known as iopoll and mq_poll). The MegaRAID driver is an
example of a SCSI LLD. Default: clear (0) which does normal
(interrupted based) IO.
