That's what scsi_complete_async_scans() is for.  If you have a built-in

What are the expected interactions of this code with early userspace aka "kinit" that comes with (soon to be merged) klibc? Does this scsi_complete_async_scans() function get called at all if such "default" initramfs with kinit is used?

It gets called as a late_initcall -- before initramfs gets started.

Many thanks for clarifying the situation.
