[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] iscsi: Refuse to open as writable if the LUN is write protected

[Fam Zheng]

Before, when a write protected iSCSI target is attached as scsi-disk
with BDRV_O_RDWR, we report it as writable, while in fact all writes
will fail.

One way to improve this is to report write protect flag as true to
guest, but a even better way is to refuse using a write protected LUN to
guest.

Target write protect flag is checked with a mode sense query.
