RE: [PATCH] aacraid 2.6: Fix aacraid probe breakage inscsi-block-2.6.git

The code does not 'damage' the scsi-misc tree version, so why not apply
it to the scsi-misc tree as well at least to make sure it does not
(extending the test coverage)? What is the scsi-block timetable for
downstream?

I have almost religiously applied all patches that touch the driver to
the Adaptec branch here. The net result is I have caught some gaffs
early on because we always have some test or Q/A program ready to give
it coverage.

Yes, that looks about right

That's correct.  The problems are only caused by the scsi-block-2.6 tree
(I don't think too many people send INQUIRY or MODE_SENSE via SG_IO, so
no-one's reported the breakage in the main tree yet).
