Since the discovery of a problem with Information Unit transfers on an
Ultrium tape, we need a way of blacklisting the tape.  Unfortunately,
the current blacklist mechanism is embedded in scsi_devinfo.c and isn't
amenable to modification. This patch series

1/3: Fixes the problem with devinfo so that the transport classes can
use it.  The interface is deliberately in scsi_priv.h so the hosts can't
use it

2/3: Updates some minor problems with the SPI transport class capability
code (instead of believing the inquiry data, it now believes only its
own settings)

3/3: Add the ultrium tape drives to the new blacklist code.

James
