Until now, an SG device was identified only by checking if its path
started with "/dev/sg". Then, hdev_open() would set the bs->sg flag
accordingly. The patch relies on the actual properties of the device
instead of the specified file path.
To this end, test for an SG device (e.g. /dev/sg0) by ensuring that
all of the following holds:
- The specified file name corresponds to a character device
- The device supports the SG_GET_VERSION_NUM ioctl
- The device supports the SG_GET_SCSI_ID ioctl
