Hi everyone,

While setting up automated testing for PVE9 we noticed that scsi block
devices were missing several udev properties.

After a bit of digging, the root cause turns out to be a regression in
the sg_inq tool (from sg3_utils). This bug slipped in as part of some
refactoring related to json output formatting on Feb 7, 2023.

I filed an issue upstream -- check it out for more details:
https://github.com/doug-gilbert/sg3_utils/issues/63

I also submitted a pull request which fixes the issue:
https://github.com/doug-gilbert/sg3_utils/pull/64

The likelihood of a new upstream release coming in time for the PVE9
release seems quite low. Perhaps a local patch for sg3_utils is in
order?

Take care,
Josh
