Right, I should  use PATCH 0/n in the cover letter to indicate there
are still patches left..  They are in hand, but not good tested. Will
send them later & took the bug.

By the way, is there other -drive property which is nice to have for
scsi-generic?  Except the readonly.. (discard, serial, werror/rerror,
and cache, I don't see other useful properties for scsi-generic)?
