  Log:
  Some fixes to handle fixed mode and variable mode more sensibly- and also
  incorporate some notion of which revision the device is. If it's < SCSI2, for
  example, READ BLOCK LIMITS is not a MANDATORY command.
  
  At any rate, the initial state is to try and read block limits to get a notion
  of the smallest and largest record size as well as the granularity. However,
  this doesn't mean that the device should actually *in* fixed block mode should
  the max && min  be equal... *That* choice is (for now) determined by whether
  the device comes up with a blocksize of nonzero. If so, then it's a fixed block
  preferred device, otherwise not (this will change again soon).
  
  When actually doing I/O, and you're in fixed length mode, the block count is
  *not* the byte count divided by the minimum block size- it's the byte count
  divided by the current blocksize (or use shift/mask shortcuts if that worked
  out...).
  
  Then when you *change* the blocksize via an ioctl, make sure this actually
  propagates to the stored notion of blocksize (and update the shift/mask
  shortcuts).
  
  Misc Other:
  	When doing a mode select, only use the SCSI_SAME_DENSITY (0x7f) code if
  the device is >= SCSI2- otherwise just use the saved density code.
  
  	Recover from the ripple of ILLEGAL REQUEST not being 'retried' in that
  RESERVE/RELEASE is not a mandatory command for < SCSI2 (so ignore it if it
  fails).
