Maybe the client code was imperfect, I don't know.
Ignoring some of the well known LU bits that never really became practically relevant, lun0 is needed to use the REPORT_LUNS command to scane for the other logical units. But unless the PQ says it actually is a valid logic unit, we never add a sdev for it.
