Subject: ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for Maxtor disks
From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

At least Maxtor OneTouch III require a "start stop unit" command after auto
spin-down before the next access can proceed.  This patch activates the
responsible code in scsi_mod for all Maxtor SBP-2 disks. 
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=183011

Maybe that should be done for all SBP-2 disks, but better be cautious.
