Testing a fix now. There looks like 3 problems here:
1. storvsc_io_completion masks all error responses from INQUIRY
2. Error handling in storvsc does not report invalid LUN correctly.
3. Block layer has new problems when device is in bad state (not present and 
timing out).

The first two have been there for 4 years but did not cause problems.
Something happened that made kernel chew lots of resources and eventually die 
when
it hits a disconnected device that is not detected properly.
