Realtek 9210 family (NVME to USB bridge) adapters always set
the write-protected bit for the whole drive if an OPAL locking range
is defined (even if the OPAL locking range just covers part of the disk).

The only way to recover is PSID reset and physical reconnection of the device.

This looks like a wrong implementation of OPAL standard (and I will try
to report it to Realtek as it happens for all firmware versions I have),
but for now, these adapters are unusable for OPAL.

Doesn't Realtek have some sort of product name you can put here?

This entry is not in the right position.  The file is supposed to be 
sorted by vendor ID, then product ID.

These adapters comes under many names, the only common thing is that
it uses Realtek controller... "USB to NVMe/SATA bridge" could work though, I guess.

Yes, despite I checked it at least three times and I did not spot it :-)))
