I think this was fixed by commit
e2d435ea4084022ab88efa74214accb45b1f9e92

Apparently bugzilla email is on the fritz again because this bug report
didn't come across linux-scsi.

This one looks like the usual problem of remove re-add with the SCSI
device model.

Since this one never apparently worked it's not a regression but an
enhancement request, isn't it?

However, adding this PCI ID to the driver should be fairly
straightforward.  Does anyone know what the actual PCI IDs are?

I just fixed that, thanks. It was incorrect "assign-to" party.

No this is not a regression. The bug list that I post is just any bugs
(mostly unattended or stalled). Sometimes those are regressions off of
the Raphael's list, when they don't get resolved for a while, or just
random regressions that haven't showed up on the "hot list" by
Raphael.

I just asked the reporter to provide this information, thanks.
