Christoph,
I'm working on a patch to add a virtual device node in the
sg driver tentatively called /dev/sgbind. It follows on
from a suggestion by Patrick Mansfield recently to allow
device scanning from the user space.
It is work in progress and I will send some patches
and/or RFCs shortly. To do this I need access to
scsi_host_hn_get() and scsi_host_put() so please leave
them exported.
