I don't have experience, but maybe it's a quite simple thing.
AFAIK, there is a switch inside the mount (on camera side) which
has to be pressed to make the camera try to talk to the lens.
You would have to make sure that your adaptor or whatever you use 
to connect your reversed lens to the camera would press this switch.
