From: Luben Tuikov Subject: [PATCH] [USB] Allow retrieval of the Caching mode page Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 15:52:12 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <662065.4331.qm@web31812.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Reply-To: ltuikov@yahoo.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Return-path: Received: from web31812.mail.mud.yahoo.com ([68.142.207.75]:34561 "HELO web31812.mail.mud.yahoo.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with SMTP id S1752044Ab0JUWwN (ORCPT ); Thu, 21 Oct 2010 18:52:13 -0400 Sender: linux-scsi-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org To: Greg KH , linux-usb@vger.kernel.org, linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The statement of the comment removed by this patch, "A number of devices have problems with MODE SENSE for page x08, so we will skip it" is certainly too general to apply for *all* devices. This patch removes the unconditional retrieval constraint of the Caching mode page.
