Subject: [PATCH] storvsc: Avoid excessive host scan on controller change

From: Long Li <longli@...rosoft.com>

When there are multiple disks attached to the same SCSI controller,
the host may send several VSTOR_OPERATION_REMOVE_DEVICE or
VSTOR_OPERATION_ENUMERATE_BUS messages in a row, to indicate there is a
change on the SCSI controller. In response, storvsc rescans the SCSI host.

There is no need to do multiple scans on the same host. Fix the code to do
only one scan.
