Move main entry point functions around so submission code comes
before completion code. Prior to this, the driver used the
traditional open(), close(), read(), write(), ioctl() ordering
however in this case that places completion code (i.e.
sg_read()) before submission code (i.e. sg_write()). The main
driver entry points are considered to be those named in struct
file_operations sg_fops' definition.

Helper functions are placed above their caller to reduce the
number of forward function declarations needed.
