I'm not quite sure what this code is for.  Each /dev/sg device reresents
a LUN.  So if we want to suport multiple LUNs in qemu for devices that
are backed by scsi-generic devices we need to take REPORT_LUNs emulation
into the core scsi code, as any qemu target is completely independent
of the underlying scsi device topology.  In fact we could easily
mix generic and scsi-disk LUNs on a single target.

This seems odd.  I'd expect the SCSI core to handle the LUN addressing.
For now that is just rejecting wrongs ones, and if multiple LUN
support is added dispatching it to the correct drivers instance.
