Far too much bloat for what you're trying to do. If you want the same behaviour as the initial megaraid_sas patch just take my patch and replace the setting of no_uld_attach with return -ENXIO in megasas_slave_alloc or move all that to slave_alloc if you you really care. But I'm strongly against even that, physical disks should be available through /dev/sg. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
