From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>
Some host adapters (e.g. Hyper-V storvsc) are known for not respecting the
SPC-2/3/4 requirement for 'INQUIRY data (see table ...) shall contain at
least 36 bytes'. As a result we get tons on 'scsi 0:7:1:1: scsi scan:
INQUIRY result too short (5), using 36' messages on console. This can be
problematic for slow consoles. Introduce short_inquiry host template flag
to avoid printing error messages for such adapters.
