    This patch implements the hotplug support for virtio-scsi.
    When there is a device attached/detached, the virtio-scsi driver will be
    signaled via event virtual queue and it will add/remove the scsi device
    in question automatically.

    The virtio-scsi HBA is the basis of an alternative storage stack
    for QEMU-based virtual machines (including KVM). Compared to
    virtio-blk it is more scalable, because it supports many LUNs
    on a single PCI slot), more powerful (it more easily supports
    passthrough of host devices to the guest) and more easily
    extensible (new SCSI features implemented by QEMU should not
    require updating the driver in the guest).
