This is definitely NOT the right way to fix the bug!

uzonesize is set once, when the device is probed, in
alauda_init_media(). That is where the check belongs; if uzonesize is 0
then the function should print a warning and return
USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_ERROR, because the device is unusable.

It's probably a good idea to check pagesize, blocksize, and zonesize at
the same time, even though none of them are used for any divisions.
