Subject: [PATCH] [USB] Allow retrieval of the Caching mode page

The statement of the comment removed by this
patch, "A number of devices have problems with
MODE SENSE for page x08, so we will skip it" is
certainly too general to apply for *all*
devices. This patch removes the unconditional
retrieval constraint of the Caching mode page.
