scsi: core: Introduce a new list for SCSI proc directory entries
Instead of using scsi_host_template members to track the SCSI proc directory entries, track these entries in a list. This changes the time needed for looking up the proc dir pointer from O(1) into O(n). This is considered acceptable since the number of SCSI host adapter types per host is usually small (less than ten). This change has been tested by attaching two USB storage devices to a qemu host: $ grep -aH . /proc/scsi/usb-storage/* /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Host scsi7: usb-storage /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Vendor: QEMU /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Product: QEMU USB HARDDRIVE /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7:Serial Number: 1-0000:00:02.1:00.0-6 /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Protocol: Transparent SCSI /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Transport: Bulk /proc/scsi/usb-storage/7: Quirks: SANE_SENSE /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Host scsi8: usb-storage /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Vendor: QEMU /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Product: QEMU USB HARDDRIVE /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8:Serial Number: 1-0000:00:02.1:00.0-7 /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Protocol: Transparent SCSI /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Transport: Bulk /proc/scsi/usb-storage/8: Quirks: SANE_SENSE This commit prepares for constifying most SCSI host templates.
