As I can see, this is a bug (or feature) of the libdevstat /
devstat_selectdevs(). If you specify any -t, then pass devices will be
reported only if you request "pass" specifically.

Assuming that SCSI and IDE in -t option means transport type, and
assuming that we count everything except ATA and SATA as SCSI, I've made
following patch, that should fix issues from the CAM side:

Any objections? Or SCSI/IDE there expected to mean command set?
