For SCSI disks where the host bus adapter (HBA) does not support Data Integrity Extensions (DIX), the write_generate and read_verify sysfs attributes incorrectly report 1 instead of 0. This happens because the BLK_INTEGRITY_NOGENERATE and BLK_INTEGRITY_NOVERIFY flags are not explicitly set when DIX is disabled. Fix this by properly setting these flags when DIX is not enabled.
