I was actually thinking that linux-scsi would be the more appropriate
list for discussing the presentation of scsi bay information. But maybe
the udev list is the right place to hash this out first.

It might be worth also including a link to the original message:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m\x119432330418980&w=2
and to let the udev people know that we already have a /sys/bus/pci/slots,
but it's only populated for slots which have a hotplug driver currently.
I was assuming that knowledge on the part of linux-pci folks, but the
udev people might not know about it.
