Sorry for the late reply, but it took me a little bit to recompile the kernel (my laptop is slow) and I was not able to obtain any meaningful results (please note I know nothing about kernel internals).

However, i filled scsi_sequential_lun_scan() with printk's but none of them appeared (yes, I did echo 7 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk). So I enabled logging for SCSI scan bus (echo 448 > /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level) and I did not see message "scsi scan: Sequential scan\n" appearing. So I thought scsi_sequential_lun_scan() was not being called.

So I recompiled usb_storage with CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DEBUG=y, and I got this (it looks like it is obtaining the max lun from some other routine?).

Does this make any sense for you? I am a bit lost.

Thank you

This is the trace I got after I used this option:
options usb-storage quirks=152d:1567:u

This trace is pretty clear; the system does not scan for logical units
beyond LUN 0, even though the device contains two logical units.

In older kernels this was controlled by CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN, but that
setting was removed in the 3.17 kernel.  In more recent kernels, LUN
scanning is controlled by a bunch of software rules, but I don't see
any reason why they would prevent LUN 1 from being scanned on your
device.

If you want to see what's going on, read through the
scsi_sequential_lun_scan() routine in drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c.  The
most important thing to check is the value of max_dev_lun for your
device.  Also, the BLIST_FORCELUN bit should be set in bflags.
