This is not required, though I guess it's harmless.

Implementing these commands introduces several overflows. There are several 
places (including SCSIRequest->sector_count and the return value from 
scsi_send_comand) that assume the transfer length fits in a signed (32-bit) 
int.

We should to implement the Block Limits VPD page, and enforce these limits.

By my reading both this and the current Read Capacity(10)  are incorrect.
They need to divide by s->cluster_size.
