This is the wrong appoach.
First of all, the mptsas, mpt2sas, and mpt3sas all share the same
driver layout, so any issue happeing with this driver will most
likely affect the others, too.
Secondly the driver is event-based anyway, so we should be moving
the initialisation to the already existing event handler:
