Subject: [PATCH 3.2 15/94] usb-storage: unusual_devs entry to fix
 write-access regression for Seagate external drives

3.2.97-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu>

commit 113f6eb6d50cfa5e2a1cdcf1678b12661fa272ab upstream.

Kris Lindgren reports that without the NO_WP_DETECT flag, his Seagate
external disk drive fails all write accesses.  This regresssion dates
back approximately to the start of the 4.x kernel releases.
