v2:
- series overhauled - first 2 patches are cleanups (split in 2
for easier review), patch 3 contains the whole logic
- previous version link:

When using SCSI passthrough and running in Linux, QEMU edits the
reply of the SCSI Inquiry VPD Block Limits message with the value
of the /sys/bus/<dev>/queue/max_sectors_kb parameter the device
has in the host. Doing so allows the Linux guest to proper setup
the device.

But the Block Limits message is optional, and its absence can cause
the device to be unusable by the guest. An example can be seen
at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1566195.

This series implements an approach to solve it.

  hw/scsi: cleanups before VPD BL emulation
  hw/scsi: centralize SG_IO calls into single function
  hw/scsi: add VPD Block Limits emulation
