Subject: Re: [PATCH 07/18] scsi: revamp host device handling
Date: Tue, 4 May 2021 11:59:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210504095920.GE25986@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210503150333.130310-8-hare@suse.de>

So right now scsi_get_host_dev/scsi_free_host_dev is entirely unused.

І'd rather just kill them off rather than giving them a new life and
hacking all over the core code for them.

What do you need the scsi_device for instead of just having a
request_queue for comands to the controller?  If we need a scsi_device
can we somehow make sure it doesn't hit the scanning and sysfs code
from a much higher level?
