OK, can you do:

strace -e trace=file lsscsi

on my system, it looks at:

open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|0x80000) = 3
open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/type", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/vendor", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/model", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/rev", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|0x80000) = 3
[0:0:0:0]    disk    Sony     MSC-U03          1.00  -       

Is it trying to access the same files on your system?  How do the
contents of those files differ between a working and a non-working
kernel?
