I know, I know. I tried to dd from some disk after the last detected
device, but missed the last physical device, so dd failed. And as it
fitted nicely into my "sd_mod registers only 128 devices" vision of the
world, I didn't bother to double check it. After some (hours of) poking
around, I finally looked into the sources of sg_map and saw it. The
overall experience was very educating. :)

Yep, we already encountered it.
