[PATCH 3/3] scsi_dh: Workaround a race condition in module insertion

[Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com>]

From: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com>

scsi_dh module is getting inserted as soon as the first device is seen.
But, the first device is not seen by the module as we were past the 
ADD_DEVICE handling in the module.

Catch the first device by handling BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER event,
and not handle that event for any of the future devices (as they would
have been handled by ADD_DEVICE event).
