Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix cciss/hpsa build errors

I recently tried to build mmotm, and configured both hpsa and cciss
as built-ins. I encountered the following build error since they
both export device attrs with the same name:

	drivers/scsi/built-in.o: multiple definition of `dev_attr_lunid'
	drivers/block/built-in.o: first defined here

The cciss patch seems obviously correct to me and would be appropriate
for the next .32-rc. But it's not critical, so if Jens wants to hold off
until next merge window, I'm fine with that.

The hpsa patch applies against mmotm. I haven't peeked at James's tree
to see if he's carrying hpsa, but my guess is "probably not". In that
case, I'm hoping Andrew can carry it until hpsa gets merged.

Thanks,
/ac
