Hi,
it seems nobody was interested in the thread qlogicfc. Here is a patch for
scsi_scan.c (against the 2.4.7 version) which solves the problem described in
the last few messages of the qlogicfc thread. It is absolutely necessary for
sparse_lun devices with LUN 0 not present.
Please review the patch, and if approved, include it in the kernel.
Cheers,
Roland

This is now much more generic.
This is a mess: What we really want is to leave the scsi_result
