Ok. I looked at the SCSI-2 standard and found a possibly sensible answer
for such an INQUIRY to a disconnected device.
First, there is a special peripheral qualifier for disconnected
physical devices:

001b The target is capable of supporting the specified peripheral
device type on this logical unit; however, the physical device
is not currently connected to this logical unit.

Second, the devices is not required to give a complete answer:

NOTES
65 The INQUIRY command is typically used by the initiator after a reset
or power-up condition to determine the device types for system
configuration. To minimize delays after a reset or power-up condition,
the standard INQUIRY data should be available without incurring any
media access delays. If the target does store some of the INQUIRY data
on the device, it may return zeros or ASCII spaces (20h) in those fields
until the data is available from the device.

While this permission to set some fields to zero is included in the
standard for other purposes, it makes clear that you must expect to
get incomplete answers from an INQUIRY command.

So, what about the following patch?
