You are right. Looks like qlogic driver loads even before udev hotplug is functional. Driver loads successfully when I re-load the driver after the system in up. Is there any solution or work-around for this problem?

Can you verify if udev hotplug is functional in your setup. To reproduce this in my local setup, I have kill'ed udevd daemon and loaded qlogic module which failed with firmware unavailable message.
