Cover letter [PATCH 0/3] cciss rmmod/scan-thread fixes

The following series fixes several problems causing hangs while rmmoding the cciss driver. In the process of fixing these hangs, I also reworked the the logical drive scanning kernel thread to use one thread per driver rather than one thread per controller. I also added a sysfs attribute to kick off a controller scan.
