Success!
Yes I see, same for sd as for sr/ide-cd, we can defeat write-protect in
2.6.0-test9 by root privilege so that then we can fail to write thru dd
or thru mount without bothering to notify the user loudly.
To prepare I remember I tried:
1) Make device writable.
2) mkfs
3) sync
4) Unplug.
5) Make device read-only.
6) Plug back in.
Thereafter I saw such tty logs as:
$ sudo sg_scan -i

LEXAR DIGITAL FILM /W1. [wide=0 sync=0 cmdq=0 sftre=0 pq=0x0]

Ack.
I concluded by trying:
$ egrep 'CONFIG_SCSI.*m' .config
CONFIG_SCSI=m
CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG=m
$
Also I was helped by the dmesg:
scsi_strcpy_devinfo: vendor string 'LEXAR ' is too long
scsi_strcpy_devinfo: model string 'DIGITAL FILM ' is too long
And I failed to immediately grok `logger`. Instead I correlated my
shell commands with my dmesg by patching usb-storage to trace cdb's.
