This is hilarious, since Sun's FC midlayer is stillborn, at best. Even with
Solaris 8 there is just a barely available proof of concept of a new ULP
hosting midlayer that was approved by Sun's PSARC over two years ago.
Linux' SCSI midlayer isn't as good as Sun's, but in this case it's definitely
the pot calling the kettle black. They're about the same wrt handing FC.
