So just for curiosity I searched the entire git history for scsi_nl_add_
and the only commit that I found was the addition of that code to the
tree in August of 2008.

Does anyone have any reason to keep scsi_nl_add_transport or
scsi_nl_add_driver that have never been used in the 4 years since
they have been added?

That's basically the question on the table right now :-)

Time has run out.

Letting legitimate and reasonable patches simply rot for a week is
absolutely never acceptable, so I'm applying Eric's patch to net-next.
