Why use fdisk then? Use parted instead. It's not the kernel's fault if
you use tools not suited for a given task...

It does:
sd 0:0:2:0: [sdc] Very big device. Trying to use READ CAPACITY(16).
sd 0:0:2:0: [sdc] 7812333568 512-byte hardware sectors (3999915 MB)
sd 0:0:2:0: [sdc] Write Protect is off
sd 0:0:2:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 23 00 00 00
sd 0:0:2:0: [sdc] Write cache: enabled, read cache: disabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
sdc: unknown partition table
Works perfectly without any partition tables...
You seem to be annoyed because the kernel tells you that there is no
partition table it recognizes - but if that bothers you so, simply stop
reading the kernel logs. My kernel also tells me that it failed to find
an AGP bridge - by your logic that should mean that everyone still using
AGP-capable motherboards should toss their system to the junkyard?!?
