All,
I'm working on fixing the boot-from-USB-doesn't-always work problem,
which turns out to be a race between several different threads at
boot. As a pre-requisite to controlling the race, I'm moving the CAM
bus/device scan to its own private SYSINIT so that its execution is
ordered. In practice, it should not affect anything, and systems
should continue to boot as normal. That's where I need help in
testing. If you have any CAM/SCSI devices that are present when you
boot, please test this patch and let me know if it changes anything
for you, good or bad.
