[PATCH] USB Storage: wedge SCSI revision at 2 for usb-storage devices

This patch started life as as479b, and has been rediffed.  Please note
the order of submission of this latest patch series -- even tho this has
an older original number, it is the last patch I'll be sending today.

This patch changes the reported SCSI revision level to 2 for all
disk-type devices.  This is needed in a few cases because the device
reports a level of 3 or higher but then crashes when given a REPORT LUNS
command (for which support is supposed to be mandatory at those levels).
This shouldn't harm us, since it only matters for sparse LUNs and we
have separate ways of coping with that.
