Subject: [SCSI] qla2xxx: Add module parameter to enable/disable GFF_ID device
type check.
From: Chad Dupuis <[email protected]>
commit 4da26e162b69d89c3186a35a052c05e61a555637 upstream.
Add the module parameter ql2xgffidenable to disable/enable the use of the
GFF_ID name server command to prevent non FCP SCSI devices from being added to
the driver's internal fc_port database.
