Hi Avi
IMO, no matter how did the driver implement, if you truly want the HPB
host mode driver you mentioned to be mainlined in the upstream Linux,
the best policy is that you should first post the driver in the SCSI
maillist community, let us firstly review here. I didn't see your
driver, I don't know how to provide the correct answer.

Thanks,
Bean
