From: Xose Vazquez Perez xose.vazquez@gmail.com
[ Upstream commit b369a0471503130cfc74f9f62071db97f48948c3 ]
Commit 56f3d383f37b ("scsi: scsi_devinfo: Add TRY_VPD_PAGES to HITACHI OPEN-V blacklist entry") modified some Hitachi entries:
HITACHI is always supporting VPD pages, even though it's claiming to support SCSI Revision 3 only.
The same should have been done also for HP-rebranded.
[mkp: checkpatch and tweaked commit message]
