We do not really want drivers doing lun masking do we? This patch seems
wrong on so many levels. Drivers should not be doing lun masking. It
should go into something like scsi-ml and be a common interface. If it
was implemented in drivers it seems like it should take advantage of the
slave callouts instead of faking sense.
