Ok I have a new patch that I've built and tested on both my UP and SMP machine
and it appears to work fine.  I took the async check out of scsi_add_lun, I
don't really see the point in waiting to do the sysfs registration stuff (if
theres a reason I haven't been able to find it in the original submission of
this functionality).  Please let me know if this is incorrect.  Thank you,

Josef
