Really, no; this isn't right. The state field of a SCSI device is for the SCSI state model. Passive might be a valid device mapper state, but it's not a valid SCSI state. If these patches can't work except by mucking with the SCSI state model, there's some layering problem elsewhere that needs sorting out.
