Hello Christoph,

According to what I see in commit 8650b8a05850 you are the author of this
code? Can the blk_queue_scsi_pdu(q) test fail in nfsd4_scsi_identify_device=
()?
If so, can nfsd4_layout_verify() be modified in such a way that it prevents
that nfsd4_scsi_proc_getdeviceinfo() is ever called for a non-SCSI queue?
Can you recommend an approach?

Thanks,

Bart.=
