Thanks for your report, i see the warning is related to the commit series:
("scsi: core: sysfs: Make use of bus callbacks")
... As it message describe ...
    .probe(), .remove() and .shutdown() to eventually remove these. Until
    all SCSI drivers are converted, this results in a runtime warning about
    the drivers needing an update because there is a bus probe function and
    a driver probe function. The in-tree drivers are fixed by the following
    commits.
