Sigh, OK I was preparing this and hopping it would just
be SQUASHED into the original patch but Ingo bit me to it
and already submitted the patches.

We do not have a dev at any of this point, and it does not
belong to any specific device. Also I would like this
_info and not _dbg so to always have it, also for production.
See the chatter for a single SCSI disk the minimum we need
is just the small print that tells all that we need (for now)

Please consider as is?

Thanks
Boaz
