Subject: [PATCH] Fixing signness of parameters in scsi module

Hi,

In scsi module I've found some inconsistency between variable type used in module_param_named and type passed to module_param_named as an argument. Especially the inconsistency of `max_scsi_luns' parameter is a bit serious because the description text says "last scsi LUN (should be between 1 and 2^32-1)".

I'm not on the mailing list. so please put my address to cc: of your reply.
