8   The SCSI spec says that INQUIRY vendor, product, and revision
9   strings must consist entirely of graphic ASCII characters,
10   padded on the right with spaces.  Since not all devices obey
11   this rule, we will replace non-graphic or non-ASCII characters
12   with spaces.  Exception: a NUL character is interpreted as a
13   string terminator, so all the following characters are set to
14   spaces.
