Subject: [PATCH 3.16 167/245] scsi: sd: Clear sdkp->protection_type if
 disk is reformatted without PI

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

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

From: Xiang Chen <chenxiang66@...ilicon.com>

commit 465f4edaecc6c37f81349233e84d46246bcac11a upstream.

If an attached disk with protection information enabled is reformatted
to Type 0 the revalidation code does not clear the original protection
type and subsequent accesses will keep setting RDPROTECT/WRPROTECT.

Set the protection type to 0 if the disk reports PROT_EN=0 in READ
CAPACITY(16).

[mkp: commit desc]
