Might be interesting as well. Marc showed me a `dmesg` snipped earlier
from when the bind fails:

The bind should happend around here somewhere I think.

But we don't even see the `sg_alloc: dev=...` message that is logged in
`sg_alloc()`. And between the change above and the call to `sg_alloc()`,
there is only the character device allocation; and if that failed, it
would print an error. So either the bind is never even tried, or the new
`blk_get_queue()` fails to get a reference.
    Which is odd, since the only way that would happen is, if the queue
was marked dying; but we see that the stack is using it for LUN probing
in `sd`.

One more thing maybe worth mentioning: in the kernel configuration we
use in the CI we have `sg` built-in. I guess most have it built as
module.

That's all I got from looking at it earlier, so far.
