Subject: [PATCH] root=/dev/scsi/sdcXbXtXuXpX

Hi Linus,

if you accept the /proc/scsi/scsi extension (listing attached high-level
drivers) that caused a lot of discussions because we're heading for a very
general solution, I'd like to offer a second patch as well, which uses the
infrastructure to allow
root=/dev/scsi/sdCXbXtXuXpX
parameter. This currently works already if you enable devfs, but may also be
needed in setups where devfs can not used.
Patch is against 2.5.24-dj1 again.
The patch depends on the /proc/scsi/scsi extensions or /proc/scsi/map.

Regards,
