[PATCH 2/3] [SCSI] storvsc: Add Hyper-V logical block provisioning tests

[Sitsofe Wheeler]

Microsoft Hyper-V targets currently only claim SPC-2 compliance / no
compliance indicated even though they implement post SPC-2 features
which means those features are not tested for. Add a blacklist flag to
Hyper-V devices that forces said testing.

See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/21/627 for the previous version of this
patch and https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/23/615 for example devices.
