Support for START/STOP UNIT right now is limited to CD-ROMs.  This is wrong,
since removable hard disks (in the real world: SD card readers) also support
it in pretty much the same way.

I remember vaguely tuning a set of large SCSI hard disks
(non-removable) so that they all didn't start immediately at the same
time (which could have burned out the PSU) but only with START UNIT
command. I think Linux or maybe even the BIOS started the drives
(nicely in sequence) before accessing the drive.

Yes, all disks do start/stop.  Removable disks support load and eject in
addition.  I'll fix the commit message.
