[SCSI] Remove scsi_wait_scan module
scsi_wait_scan was introduced with asynchronous host scanning as a hack for distributions that weren't using proper udev based wait for root to appear in their initramfs scripts. In 2.6.30 Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Date: Sun Apr 12 20:06:56 2009 +0200 PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume Actually broke scsi_wait_scan because it renders scsi_complete_async_scans() a nop for modular SCSI if you include scsi_scans.h (which this module does). The lack of bug reports is sufficient proof that this module is no longer used.

or async on the kernel's command line.

-# scsi_wait_scan is a loadable module which waits until all the async scans are
-# complete. The idea is to use it in initrd/ initramfs scripts. You modprobe
-# it after all the modprobes of the root SCSI drivers and it will wait until
-# they have all finished scanning their buses before allowing the boot to
-# proceed. (This method is not applicable if targets boot independently in
-# parallel with the initiator, or with transports with non-deterministic target
-# discovery schemes, or if a transport driver does not support scsi_wait_scan.)

-# This symbol is not exposed as a prompt because little is to be gained by
-# disabling it, whereas people who accidentally switch it off may wonder why
-# their mkinitrd gets into trouble.
