Yes, I have this code in scsi_id (scsi_serial.c), AFAIR the same as we
once had in the kernel. The return 1 means we won't use this id:

        /* 
         * ASSOCIATION must be with the device (value 0)
         */
        if ((page_83[1] & 0x30) != 0)
                return 1;

The source code is included with the udev release (under the extras
directory), or at:
