Please Cc Martin Petersen for patches that modify SCSI code.

The string comparison check looks fragile to me. Is the purpose of that
check perhaps to verify whether tracing is being activated through the
SCSI generic interface? If so, how about changing that test into
something like the following?

	MAJOR(dev) == SCSI_GENERIC_MAJOR
