I don't wish to be annoying, but you have been asking this same question
for a while now. You were told that this should work, and for you to
report any issues that you found. So, I'm guessing that you have not
yet actually tried this out? Why not?

Actually My problem is to report the current problems in hotplugging of
FC-HBA on PCI Express for kernel 2.6.8 and don't have the hardware, I have
studied the code, searched and studied the documents available in the
internet, but I am not able to conclude. That is why I thought of taking
help from you experienced people.
I think now the problem is clear to you.
Please help me.

No, the problem is not clear to me. I think it works just fine. Why do
you think it doesn't?

"It should work" means "there are currently no known problems".
You could ask the same question every single day, but it's much less
annoying for the lkml subscribers if you just follow the relevant
mailing lists.

The problem here is that he doesn't know whether or not it works, but
instead of doing something sensible, like googling for problem
reports, he's being really annoying on the mailing list, hoping
someone else will do his work assignment for him.
