We have to discover the basics of the disk before we can create the
gendisk/block device/request queue. And some of the subsequent
parameters we need can't be stored or acted upon until everything has
been set up. So some questions we have to ask several times.

I guess we could extend the first_scan logic to cover the error case
scenarios. But it is quite unusual for a device to not implement the
caching mode page...
