Could you wait on this a bit ... since it's such an old bug.  The code
in question needs to be reworked (as the comment says).  I think the
best rework is to have the caller pass in an optional struct
scsi_sense_header into scsi_test_unit_ready() instead of the hacky
media_may_be_present, so the one place that needs this will be able to
interpret the sense codes correctly.

I can do this when I get back home ... unfortunately, I'm in Aswan today
at an Internet café ... I'll be back in Cairo tomorrow, but my US system
seems to have fallen off the internet, so I might not be able to test
any patches I come up with.  Worst case, I'll be back in Chicago on
Thursday.
