Take a page out of the usb-storage book, and simple disable no_report_opcodes
outright.
Given that this device also seems broken in other ways can we wait a bit
before using the big hammer?
Actually the big hammer I would like to avoid is disabling uas all together
on these devices, as they work fine with 2 out of 3 of the 3 disks I've
tested with, as long as no report opcodes is not used.
Which is why my other patch also includes a log message to explain how
to enable uas despite the blacklist, but that will only work if we don't
send report opcodes.

I understand, so an alternative would be to make this a quirk and only
set it for ASM1051/ASM1053 bridges.
Even better would be to combine this with figuring out why the bridge is
becoming unhappy when paired with a crucial m500 ssd, and fix that +
a report opcodes quirk, so that we don't have the blacklist it at all.
Any ideas how to fix the unhappiness ? I've already tried setting all
the sdev flags the usb-storage driver sets, but that does not help.

Hans
