I sent out the following patch earlier in the week but James hasn't
picked it up yet...


SCSI: Fix error handling when no ULD is attached

dereference the scsi driver even when the device had no ULD attached.

Ensure that a driver is registered and make the driver accessor function
more resilient to errors during device discovery.
