Given that as far as I can tell only ATA devices implement OPAL we could key it off that for now. But that's only going to defer the problem until support for other security protocols comes along for real SCSI devices. But as we already set no_report_opcodes for all usb-storage and quirked uas devices I think the worst offenders are already covered anyway.
