# SCSI generic
probeall /dev/sg scsi_hostadapter sg
alias /dev/sg* /dev/sg
alias /dev/scsi/*/generic /dev/sg
When you touch /dev/sg0 it tries to load sg. The same applies for other
listed as well.
This is different fro non-devfs case where module is loaded only when
you try to open device.
Everything has its price ... what about enabling module cleanup again?
