PATCH 1/1 sbp2: remove broken inquiry mangling

scsi_cmnd.request_buffer is always a scatterlist these days. Checking random bites into it and then mangling the data in sbp2_check_sbp2_response will cause really bad memory corruption when you're not lucky enough to have the check not trigger by luck.

Thanks, but this change plus minor whitespace edits made it "already" into -mm:
