I don't really have a problem with an additional option.

I also think it's important to emphasize that the purpose of the LBP
support in scsi_debug is to test the block and SCSI layer code. The same
is true for the T10 PI support. I see scsi_debug as being a simple test
vehicle rather than a comprehensive and realistic SCSI target. We have
the target subsystem for that.
