For over 20 years the sg driver has been carrying this snippet that hangs
off the completion callback:

        if (driver_stat & DRIVER_SENSE) {
                 struct scsi_sense_hdr ssh;

                 if (scsi_normalize_sense(sbp, sense_len, &ssh)) {
                         if (!scsi_sense_is_deferred(&ssh)) {
                                 if (ssh.sense_key == UNIT_ATTENTION) {
                                         if (sdp->device->removable)
                                                 sdp->device->changed = 1;
                                 }
                         }
                 }
         }

Is it needed? The unit attention (UA) may not be associated with the
device changing. Shouldn't the SCSI mid-level monitor UAs if they
impact the state of a scsi_device object?
