The log information is not helpful without the information to correlate to the actual device.
Log messages that associate one entity with another can be generated
whenever such an association comes into existence, which is probably when
devices get probed.
E.g. a host:channel:target:lun identifier gets associated with a block
device name by the dev_printk() calls in sd_probe():
[ 3.600000] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
BTW, if you think of {"0:0:0:0","sda"} as a row in some normalized table
and squint a bit, this problem is not unlike the replication of database
tables over a message queue.
