Hi,

drivers/scsi/scsi.c : scsi_register_module() is called by drivers which
need the midlevel SCSI layer. When no hostadapters are found, it calls
request_module("scsi_hostadapter").

When scsi drivers are compiled in and not found, the request_module()
fails because the root FS is not mounted (not the case when a ramdisk is
loaded I guess), so request_module() logs a warning.

Applied fix fixes the warning by only calling request_module() when the
root FS is mounted.

Regards,

Igmar
