Just in case this was a scsi_debug issue instead (I am covering that
prospect on another bug just for scsi_debug korg#212337 [0]) I tried
a userspace solution based on what I have observed I still can reproduce
this block/009 failure. The failure rate is much lower though, I have it
now at 1/1705 but alas it is still failing.

The patch below demonstrates the exra settle work for scsi_debug
attempted, and with it, this is still failing. So either the settle
work needs *more* effort, or this is a real issue.
