The Quantum GoVault SATAPI removable disk device returns ATA_ERR in

that won't report its LUNs. Since most ATAPI devices don't support
multiple LUNs anyway, we might as well fake a response like we do for
ATA devices.

I'm leaning towards applying this, perhaps with a module option that
allows experimenters to revert back to the older behavior.
Any chance you could be talked into tackling some of the SAT
translation-related items Doug G mentioned? I'm almost certain there
are some info pages we should be returning, but are not, at the very least.
I thought we were closing in on agreeing that the SPC/MMC
inconsistencies made this the correct candidate fix.
that works for me...
