It is a kind of a "bug". The core does not call driver functions, if
bus_type is provided. So the warning is fine according to the current
logic of the core, telling you it will ignore things a driver asked for.

Looks like it does not use probe() on the bus. Now lets get rid of
remove(). :)

Right, I guess, they are not going away, but you still should only use
one of them, and not both at the same time.

How about the following patch? Which does not use driver core pointers,
which are ignored by the core, to do private SCSI stuff.

Thanks,

From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>
Subject: SCSI: do not use bus_type->remove() and driver->remove() at the same time

If a driver sets blk_queue_prep_rq(), it should clean it up itself, and
not from the bus callbacks. This removes the need to hook into bus->remove(),
which should not be used at the same time as driver->remove().
