I think this needs to be a tunable as old initiators might not be
able to cope with descriptor sense data.  My idea was to only turn
it own if the LU is large enough to need it.  Initiators that can
deal with large LUs by using READ CAPACITY (16) and READ/WRITE (16)
should be able to handle descriptor style sense data as well.
