[SCSI] Workaround for disks that report bad optimal transfer length

Not all disks fill out the VPD pages correctly. Add a blacklist flag
that allows us ignore the SBC-3 VPD pages for a given device. The
BLIST_SKIP_VPD_PAGES flag triggers our existing skip_vpd_pages
scsi_device parameter to bypass VPD scanning.

Also blacklist the offending Seagate drive model.
