[PATCH] small SCSI use count fix

[PATCH] small SCSI use count fix

[Tim Hockin]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 368 bytes --]

Attached is a small fix to increment the use count in scsi_register_host()
before we start working with it - prevent false decrementing.  (from one of
the crew here ;)

Please let me know if there is any reason this shouldn't go mainline in the
next 2.4.x.

thanks
Tim
