I can't find where you call blk_scsi_ioctl_init(). I've attached a fix
(not tested).

Jens, I'm not sure that I saw the above patch on any mailing list. If
you merged the patch without sending any mailing list, please don't do
that.

Subject: [PATCH] block: call blk_scsi_ioctl_init()

Currently, blk_scsi_ioctl_init() is not called so
blk_default_cmd_filter isn't initalized. Some commands are not blocked
wrongly.

This fixes a regression introduced:

    block: get rid of queue-private command filter
