I think it seems like a good idea from the user perspective. They do not
have to worry about setting the modparam. Maybe this is not done already
because of bad targets? I do not know. Maybe someone else does.
One question about the memory allocation here. I know it was already
like this, but why are we using GFP_ATOMIC here and in some of the other
places in this code path? We sleep in some of these paths and some
functions we call use GFP_KERNEL, so it seems like we could use
something that is a little safer from allocation failures like GFP_NOIO?
If we change it, that could be another patch that modifies all the scan
code since you are are just carrying over the existing gfp flag in this
patch and this patch is just doing the one change to the report luns code.
