I sent out the following patch earlier in the week but James hasn't
picked it up yet...


SCSI: Fix error handling when no ULD is attached

Commit 18a4d0a2 introduced a bug in which we would attempt to
dereference the scsi driver even when the device had no ULD attached.

Ensure that a driver is registered and make the driver accessor function
more resilient to errors during device discovery.
