>Description:
I have a an early SCSI-2 disk (MICROP, 2217-15MQ1091501, 4930>, that
just wanders off into the weeds when receiving a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command.
This also prevents the system from rebooting as it seems to completely
wedge the BHA controller at this point.
>How-To-Repeat:
Reboot with this device.
>Fix:
There probably ought to be quirk entries for this behaviour. I could
imagine that there might be other devices where this is broken too.
