Subject: [PATCH 02/20] cciss: Use one scan thread per controller and fix hang
	during rmmod

From: Andrew Patterson <andrew.patterson@...com>

Replace the use of one scan kthread per controller with one per driver.
Use a queue to hold a list of controllers that need to be rescanned with
routines to add and remove controllers from the queue.

Fix locking and completion handling to prevent a hang during rmmod.
