Hi,
We received a report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1288687) that
live images with the rawhide kernel were failing to boot on USB sticks.
Similar issues were reported when just inserting a USB stick into a boot from a
CD instead of USB ("I see /dev/sdb, but no /dev/sdb1 etc." per the report)
I reduced the test scenario to:
1) insert scsi_dh_alua module
2) insert Live USB drive
which gives

[ 125.109272] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk
and no partitions so the drive can't be mounted. Note the alua -EINVAL
error is there even when the drive can be mounted so the warning and
lack of partitions is the real indication of the problem.
I did a bisect and came up with this as the first bad commit:
commit 086b91d052ebe4ead5d28021afe3bdfd70af15bf
Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>
Date: Thu Aug 27 14:16:57 2015 +0200
scsi_dh: integrate into the core SCSI code
Stop building scsi_dh as a separate module and integrate it fully into the
core SCSI code with explicit callouts at bus scan time. For now the
callouts are placed at the same point as the old bus notifiers were called,
but in the future we will be able to look at ALUA INQUIRY data earlier on.
Note that this also means that the device handler modules need to be loaded
by the time we scan the bus. The next patches will add support for
autoloading device handlers at bus scan time to make sure they are always
loaded if they are enabled in the kernel config.

This was an involved commit so I didn't try to revert. Any ideas here?
