This is the first step to removing many of the da(4) quirks that have
accumulated for USB devices.  This code should remove the message:
"READ(6)/WRITE(6) not supported, increasing minimum_cmd_size to 10." It
should also fix USB devices which fail when receiving 6 byte commands but
do not yet have a quirk.

After this code is in both stable and current, current USB quirks will be
deprecated but can be re-enabled in a pinch with a kernel option.
Unfortunately, I only have contact information for the more recent quirks
that were committed and so the only way to find devices that have other
problems (i.e. NO_SYNC_CACHE) is to disable the quirks and re-enable them
for devices that still fail.  I'm doing this as early as possible before
5.2 to get things sorted out and if your device fails at that point, it
can be returned to ordinary behavior with a kernel option until I remove
it from the deprecated section.
