SCSI: implement sd_unlock_native_capacity()
Implement sd_unlock_native_capacity() method which calls into
hostt->unlock_native_capacity() if implemented. This will be invoked
by block layer if partitions extend beyond the end of the device and
can be used to implement, for example, on-demand ATA host protected
area unlocking.
