Out of necessity the definition of the bits and the decoding are two distinct steps, and as such are always prone to differences. So what is your suggestion here? Having the 'blacklist' sysfs entry gives us a nice way of figuring out if the selection algorithm in scsi_devinfo.c works as designed. Without it it's quite hard to validate this...
