[SCSI] permit READ DEFECT DATA in block/scsi_ioctl
The soon to be released smartmontools 5.34 uses the
READ DEFECT DATA command on SCSI disks. A disk that
has defect list entries (or worse, an increasing number
of them) is at risk.
Currently the first invocation of smartctl causes this:
scsi: unknown opcode 0x37
message to appear the console and in the log.
The READ DEFECT DATA SCSI command does not change
the state of a disk. Its opcode (0x37) is valid for
SBC devices (e.g. disks) and SMC-2 devices (media
changers) where it is called INITIALIZE STATUS ELEMENT
WITH RANGE and again doesn't change the external state
of the device.
Changelog:
- mark SCSI opcode 0x37 (READ DEFECT DATA) as
safe_for_read
