Thank you Matthew,

I suppose you mean sd, scsi disk support. Yes, it is _statically_
included in kernel.
Another hint: if I "modprobe sg" (scsi generic), a bunch of new sg disks
show up in dmesg, including those from lpfc.
I noticed they are recognised as an undefined "scsi" device and not as
"sd" (disks) or "st" (tapes) as other devices present in the same system,
(see channel 7 in attached log).

st 0:0:5:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 1
ch 0:0:5:1: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 8
sd 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
scsi 1:0:15:0: Attached scsi generic sg3 type 3
scsi 1:1:9:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 3
scsi 1:2:8:0: Attached scsi generic sg5 type 3
scsi 7:0:1:0: Attached scsi generic sg6 type 0
scsi 7:0:3:0: Attached scsi generic sg7 type 0
sd 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg8 type 0
scsi 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg9 type 0
scsi 7:0:2:0: Attached scsi generic sg10 type 0
