From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <redacted>
Its reported that mptsas can at times take over 30 seconds
to recognize SCSI storage devices [0], this is done on the
driver's probe path. Use the the new module_long_probe_init()
to annotate this driver's probe is broken and require some love,
but makes the driver operational until that is fixed.
