I am seeing it fill up my messages log as it is logging 1 or so messages each minute. I've emailed the SCSI maintainer James Bottomley twice about it but had no response either time.

OK, can you try this ... it should confirm the theory if the messages go
away.

Thanks,

This patch fixes it, and there was no message during boot about not being ready, nor after the machine had fully booted. Great ;-)

However, I did get an oops when warm booting the kernel, I suspect this may be the oops that I get every now and then when warm rebooting, with no real pattern, and possibly isn't related to the patch. As my serial console wasn't set up at the time, I took a photo instead, at http://www.reub.net/kernel/scsi-oops.jpg

Thanks
