Tao, thanks for the patch. Does this test case have corresponding kernel side
fix? I'm guessing that your recent kernel patch is the fix. If so, I suggest
to mention the kernel commit in here and the test case header comment below.

Is there any reason to run this test case only for nullb? If not, I suggest to
remove the line above to run it for both nullb and scsi_debug.
