Since this was logged:

  Device NOT ready
     Request Sense returned 02 04 01

then it seems capacity/block size were never determined (happens right
after these log messages if they *don't* occur) so I guess they are
random values and this usb storage should never have been probed? I'll
stop here due to my cluelessness.
