There is no limit in the SCSI spec. 20 was copy-pasted from virtio-blk
which in turn was copy-pasted from ATA. So 36 is even more arbitrary,
but bumping it up too much might cause issues (e.g. who knows there's no
off-by-one somewhere if I make it 252, so that 256 is the maximum amount
of returned data).
Thanks,
