Fine with me but you'll need more than just the identify data, if you wanna do stuff like support MODE SELECT/SENSE.


QStor has no need for MODE_SELECT, and the current implementation
of MODE_SENSE in libata-scsi appears to use only the IDENTIFY data.

The READ_CAPACITY emulation in libata-scsi currently uses dev->n_sectors,
but that could be changed to recalculate it from the IDENTIFY words.

So.. okay in concept?

Seems sane, send a patch.

Typically we aren't in the business of pre-approving patches, much to ESR's chagrin :)
