3.16.83-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Xiang Chen <chenxiang66@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 465f4edaecc6c37f81349233e84d46246bcac11a upstream.
If an attached disk with protection information enabled is reformatted
to Type 0 the revalidation code does not clear the original protection
type and subsequent accesses will keep setting RDPROTECT/WRPROTECT.
Set the protection type to 0 if the disk reports PROT_EN=0 in READ
CAPACITY(16).
