Actually, no, I'd like to see module name as well.
We need a more generic than SCSI solution for this, I think, but if you
look at most initrd systems, they go through a lot of pattern matching
to try to translate the proc name into the module name. This would
allow every initrd maker to eliminate those tiresome tables.
