            Bug ID: 219652
           Summary: READ CAPACITY(16) not used on large USB-attached drive

diff without stamps of the usbmon output, good (-) to bad (+)

Upgrading from old mainline LTS kernel 6.6 to current LTS kernel 6.12, a large
3.00TB SATA drive connected via USB through an "Initio Corporation INIC-1610P
SATA bridge" (id 13fd:1e40) is falsely reported as a 2.00TiB capacity drive. 
According to the dmesg output, the newer kernel fails to identify the need to
call read_capacity_16(), resulting in a 32-bit size calculation.

I had reported this initially to the linux-usb mailing list.  Alan Stern
(CC'ed) wrote back, suggesting I redirect to linux-scsi, and include some
usbmon traces.  To upload the traces, I'm opening this on bugzilla.

A few notes:

* The USB-to-SATA bridge (via lsusb) is:
  ID 13fd:1e40 Initio Corporation INIC-1610P SATA bridge

* When booting into kernel 6.12.7, the external drive capacity
  is mis-reported.  Booting /back/ into 6.6.68, the capacity
  continues to be mis-reported.  One must now yank the USB
  cable (or power-cycle) to get the correct size detection again.

Here is a diff of the dmesg output when plugging in the drive.
