	I agree, except there is a max host lun check based on a decoded lun value. Not
really sure why its there other than maybe some of the HBA's have resource
issues with a large number of luns.

> scsilun_to_int() does not appear to be used very much; I see 35 matches in linux-3.7-rc5. Perhaps the callers should be updated to support 64-bit LUNs and decide what to do if they cannot handle larger values.


	Which is a perfectly valid fix, but if that is being done, why do any swizzling
in scsilun_to_int()?
