The device type for PQ1 should be reliable, it's only PQ3 that has 0x1f

Also, we have defines for this (SCSI_INQ_PQ_NOT_CON and
SCSI_INQ_PQ_NOT_CAP)

This condition is impossible.

The reason the old code did all that is because the inquiry data of a
PQ3 device isn't credible and shouldn't be acted on.

If you really have the SCSI_SCAN_LUN_IGNORED case here, you've already
released sdev in scsi_probe_and_add_lun, so you can't use it here.

Finally, I think you should probably update the scsi_match function not
to attach on PQ3, just in case someone violates spec and has a valid
type.
