Keith,

SCSI can't reliably detect ahead of time whether a device supports WRITE
SAME. So we'll issue a WRITE SAME command and if that fails we'll set
the queue limit to 0. So it is "normal" that the limit changes at
runtime.

I'm debugging a couple of other regressions from the queue limits
shuffle so I haven't looked into this one yet. But I assume that's
what's happening.
