[SCSI] scsi_scan.c: handle bad inquiry responses

Browse source

A particular USB device has been reporting short inquiry lengths.  The
SCSI code cannot operate properly unless we get an inquiry length of
36 or above (because of the way we parse vendor and product), so
assume at least 36 bytes are valid even if the device reports fewer.
This is wrong, but it's no worse than what we're doing now (using the
garbage beyond the last reported valid byte).
