There are several oddities about the host SCSI interface that I see:
  1. The host bus seems to report up to 6 devices even though only 2 are
     present (Disk and CDROM).
  2. The CDROM emulation doesn't report the same status as a real device.
  3. The host emulation of SCSI doesn't support all the page codes which
     is why there is the hack.

But as James said, these don't appear to be related to the failure because
the code worked before and only in post 4.11 merege is there a problem.
