For now let's forget this issue. I have been using the sysfs lookup
scheme because I thought people would frown on not using sysfs since it
was there. If we are allowed to add a vendor or driver id to the event
then fc can call it what it wants and base it on the pci naming and
iscsi can handle its special cases how it needs to. No reason to force
our quirks on you guys :)
