Hi Martin,

The SCSI sysfs interface made the procfs interface superfluous. sysfs support was
added in the most prominent user of the procfs interface (sg3_utils) in 2008. The
implementation of the procfs interface makes it harder than necessary to constify
the SCSI host templates. Hence this patch series that removes the procfs interface.

Please consider this patch series for the next merge window.

Thanks,

Bart.
