When we have introduced fast load, scan of devices are happening from

But currently we have not removed " _scsih_probe_devices(ioc);" call
from actual probe and it is getting called from multiple places.

As a result, we end-up into this issue.

Please try the attached patch and provide your feedback. Based upon
your result, we will post this patch to upstream.
