OOPS - ide-scsi bug - SCSI BUS number increasing

[gijoe]

There is a bug in ide-scsi module (kernel version 2.6.0-test10 with enabled
preemptible kernel) - this bug causes SCSI BUS number to be increased by one 
everytime ide-scsi module is reloaded  (modprobe -r ide-scsi then 
do modprobe ide-scsi) - it is easy to spot that with cdrecord -scanbus.
This bug doesn't appear to exist in 2.4 kernel series, I've not tested this
with 2.5 series though, this is not cdrtools fault since I tried both versions
(2.00 and 2.00.3) with the same result.When ide-scsi is compiled into the
kernel, obviously the SCSI BUS number doesn't increase since there is no 
possibility to reload it during the same kernel session.

/proc/scsi/scsi says:

Attached devices:
Host: scsi13 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: LITE-ON  Model: LTR-48246S       Rev: SS0D
  Type:   CD-ROM                           ANSI SCSI revision: 02
  
  
And here is the reproduction of bug -

1) Before reloading ide-scsi, output of cdrecord -scanbus:

2) After preloading (modprobe -r ide-scsi && modprobe ide-scsi)

Output of uname -r:

I was trying to fix this bug myself in ide-scsi.c code, but I unfortunately I
don't know it's structure...
