Because no new fake SCSI drivers are accepted anymore.

If you can access the firmware/hypervisor code, have that provide SCSI. 
  Then the Linux driver piece is easy, obvious and flexible SCSI, and is 
not "fake."

If the SCSI guys were smart, there would be a totally generic helper
layer that allows anyone to hook into the SCSI layer as a virtual SCSI
disk provider in like 10 lines of code. :-)

The SCSI target code gives you the capability to do that (the SCSI 
transport part, the virtual storage part is easy from there).
