Guillaume,

It appears that some minor problems with the SCSI and FibreChannel 
hotswap driver have caused it to be rejected by the SCSI maintainers at 
this time.  Unforutnately I don't have much time before 2.6 releases to 
work on it, so I'd ask if you could move this to a 2.7 delivery.

Thanks!
-steve
