Some Hyper-V hosts are known for ignoring SPC-2/3/4 requirement
for 'INQUIRY data (see table ...) shall contain at least 36 bytes'. As a
result we get tons on 'scsi 0:7:1:1: scsi scan: INQUIRY result too short
(5), using 36' messages on console. As Hyper-V is also known for its
serial port being extremely slow multi-VCPU guests we get CPU blocked
putting these (useless) messages on console (e.g. happens when we add
multiple disks). Move them to debug level.

This isn't an ignorable debug message.  It means the inquiry information
the system relies on will be false, so it's fairly essential for bug
reports.  It could be made a once per device print, but I don't think we
can eliminate it.
