[PATCH] scsi: sd: Use UNMAP in case the device doesn't support WRITE_SAME

From: Bean Huo <beanhuo@xxxxxxxxxx>

There exists a storage device that supports READ_CAPACITY, but doesn't
support WRITE_SAME. The problem is that WRITE SAME heuristics doesn't work
for this kind of storage device since its block limits VPD page doesn't
contain the LBP information. Currently we set its provisioning_mode
"writesame_16" and didn't check "no_write_same". If we didn't manually change
this default provisioning_mode to "unmap" through sysfs, provisioning_mode
will be set to "disabled" after the first WRITE_SAME command with the following
error occurs:

sd 0:0:0:3: [sdd] tag#4 UNKNOWN(0x2003) Result: hostbyte=0x00 driverbyte=0x08 cmd_age=0s
sd 0:0:0:3: [sdd] tag#4 Sense Key : 0x5 [current]
sd 0:0:0:3: [sdd] tag#4 ASC=0x20 ASCQ=0x0
sd 0:0:0:3: [sdd] tag#4 CDB: opcode=0x93 93 08 00 00 00 00 00 00 05 4b 00 00 00 1f 00 00
blk_update_request: critical target error, dev sdd, sector 10840 op 0x3:(DISCARD) flags 0x800 phys_seg 1 prio class 0

Comparing to manually change provisioning_mode in sysfs, it is better to set
provisioning_mode to "unmap" in case WRITE_SAME is not supported.
