BTW, while debugging a case with a bigger storage supplier I found
that open-iscsi seems to do exactly this undeterministic behaviour.
I have a 3TB LUN. If I access < 2TB sectors it uses READ10/WRITE10 and
if I go beyond 2TB it changes to READ16/WRITE16.
Isn't that exactly what your latest patch does for >64K sector writes? :)
Not exactly, we choose the default by checking the LUN size. 10 Byte for < 2TB
and
16 Byte otherwise.
My latest patch makes an exception if a request is bigger than 64K sectors and
switches to 16 Byte requests. These would otherwise end in an I/O error.
open-iscsi uses 10 Byte requests for any sector offset smaller than 2^32
regardless
of the LUN size and 16 Byte requests otherwise.

It's the reason why I haven't merged that patch yet.
