[PATCH] Make SCSI SG v4 driver enabled by default and remove EXPERIMENTAL dependency, since udev depends on BSG.

From: John Stoffel
Date: Mon Jul 13 2009 - 15:41:50 EST


Make Block Layer SG support v4 the default, since recent udev versions
depend on this to access serial numbers and other low level info properly.
