Because it's used for module removal and we want every driver to use the standard interface that. Jiang, you also need to convert the driver to scsi_add_host/scsi_remove_host from the legacy scsi_register interface, otherwise the SCSI layer will be very unhappy. Take a look at commit 0d31f8759109cbc1e6fc196d08e6b0e8a9e93b3f for example, the change should be straight forward. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
