From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> commit 57619f3cdeb5ae9f4252833b0ed600e9f81da722 upstream. Recently it was reported that the following USB storage devices are unusable with Linux kernel 6.9: * Kingston DataTraveler G2 * Garmin FR35 This is because attempting to read the IO Advice Hints Grouping mode page causes these devices to reset. Hence do not read the IO Advice Hints Grouping mode page from USB/UAS storage devices.
