This patch (as1312) fixes a minor bug in usb-storage.  The
fill_inquiry() routine neglects to pre-load the inquiry data buffer
with spaces.  As a result, if the vendor name is shorter than 8
characters or the product name is shorter than 16, the remainder will
be filled with garbage.

The patch also removes some unnecessary calls to strlen().

<title>USB: usb-storage: add BAD_SENSE flag</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are
pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data.  The information
they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense
data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or
hang.  The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets.

The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage
should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data.  The flag can
be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter,
and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more
than 18 bytes fails or times out.

An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a
Prolific chip having this bug.

The WHCI HCD will also support urbs with scatter-gather lists.  Add a
usb_bus field to indicated how many sg list elements are supported by
the HCD.  Use this to decide whether to pass the scatter-list to the HCD
or not.

Make the usb-storage driver use this new field.

Use dev_dbg() instead of an unconditional printk(KERN_DEBUG).  This has
two benefits; one is that it identifies the USB device which the messages
related to, and the other is that the messages won't be produced unless
debug is turned on.

Enable the debug messages when CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DEBUG is set.

usb-storage: Workaround devices with bogus sense size

Some devices, such as Huawei E169, advertise more than the standard
amount of sense data, causing us to set US_FL_SANE_SENSE, assuming
they support it. However, they subsequently fail the request sense
with that size.

This works around it generically. When a sense request fails due to
a device returning an error, US_FL_SANE_SENSE was set, and that sense
request used a larger sense size, we retry with a smaller size before
giving up.

Based on an original patch by Ben Efros &lt;ben@pc-doctor.com&gt;

<title>USB: storage: When a device returns no sense data, call it a Hardware Error</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch (as1294) fixes a problem that has plagued users for several
kernel releases.  Some USB mass-storage devices don't return any sense
data when they encounter certain kinds of errors.  The SCSI layer
interprets this to mean that the operation should be retried, and the
same thing happens -- over and over again with no limit.  In some
circumstances (such as when a bus reset occurs) that is the right
thing to do, but not here.

The patch checks for this condition (a transport failure with no sense
data) and changes the result code to DID_ERROR and the sense code to
Hardware Error.  This does get only a limited number of retries, and
so the command will fail relatively quickly instead of getting stuck
in an infinite loop.

This fixes a large part of Bugzilla #14118.

We set pdt_1f_for_no_lun for UFI devices, so most floppy entiries should
be unnecessary. This patch removes three entries which I'm certain are.
 - For Mitsumi I have a customer with RHEL 5 (bz#514296)
 - For SMSC I accessed Novell's Bugzilla and verified the entry
 - For Y-E I tested the patch with the actual device
