It is only a pseudo bus for the driver from Christoph's suggestion,
that's just to make probing and removing of the driver's devices easier (it
looks like a normal scsi driver now).

Don't worry, there is no way we are going to put transport, scsi or
anything like that there. This driver will use the scsi-ml infrastucture
for sysfs and this includes using the transport classes. I think this comment
from AJ, was just in error when he was unaware of scsi-ml's transport classes.
