Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org
Thanks, Paolo.
I'm Cc'ing stable as I believe this fixes a driver bug where it
doesn't follow the spec. Per commit message, today devices are
required to issue RESCAN events for each LUN behind a target when
hotplugging, or risking the driver not seeing the new LUNs.
Is this enough? Or should we resend after merge per below?
