 This is because mfi(4) currently doesn't notify CAM when it receives a
 drive insertion/removal event from the hardware. I fixed this in the
 tree at work; I'll post it to freebsd-scsi when I have access to it
 again, probably in a couple of months.
 
 FWIW, running "camcontrol rescan all" should have also caused the
 passthrough devices to appear, so that's another workaround.
