[SCSI] sr: check_events() ignore GET_EVENT when TUR says otherwise
Some broken devices indicates that media has changed on every GET_EVENT_STATUS_NOTIFICATION. This translates into MEDIA_CHANGE uevent on every open() which lets udev run into a loop. Verify GET_EVENT result against TUR and if it generates spurious events for several times in a row, ignore the GET_EVENT events, and trust only the TUR status. This is the log of a USB stick with a (broken) fake CDROM drive: scsi 5:0:0:0: Direct-Access SanDisk U3 Cruzer Micro 8.02 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg3 type 0 scsi 5:0:0:1: CD-ROM SanDisk U3 Cruzer Micro 8.02 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk sr2: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x tray sr 5:0:0:1: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr2 sr 5:0:0:1: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 5 sr2: GET_EVENT and TUR disagree continuously, suppress GET_EVENT events sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] 31777279 512-byte logical blocks: (16.2 GB/15.1 GiB) sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page present sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page present sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through sdb: sdb1 -tj: Updated to consider only spurious GET_EVENT events among different types of disagreement and allow using TUR for kernel event polling after GET_EVENT is ignored.
