+Subject: [SCSI] Don't attempt to send extended INQUIRY command if
+ skip_vpd_pages is set
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git/commit?id=7562523e84ddc742fe1f9db8bd76b01acca89f6b
+Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/719002
+
+If a device has the skip_vpd_pages flag set we should simply fail the
+scsi_get_vpd_page() call.
