Nah, you never need to use any of the --with-storage-XXX options in
normal circumstances. If you leave them out, it will automatically
probe and enable/disable as appropriate. You only need to use the
--with options if you want to force configure to abort if probing
fails.

Yeah, or change the way the Linux bit works so it sucks less. I'm
still undecided on this particular bit of code. I'm using sysfs
because I'll need to use it anyway when I add NPIV support. Then
again NPIV support may work out differently to how I expect - I'll
be getting access to some real NPIV hardware soon to verify...

Sure, will do.

This size value comes straight from HAL, as is the LUN size. The code
will re-probe this value a short while later when we open the actual
device node to lookup permissions/ownership, so I think its overkill
to check size here too.

Yeah, guess I should change the contract of that method. Its a little ugly.
All the other drivers work in this way though, so I'll do that cleanup as
a separate patch.

Works for GCC at least, but it could be that's a non-portable GCC extension
