Subject: [PATCH] allow NULL dev argument to scsi_add_host
Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2003 20:33:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030111203317.A25836@lst.de> (raw)

We need scsi_add_host sometimes without having a struct device (i.e.
eisa/vlb drivers, ieee1394 storage), so handle that case gracefully.
