Stop the OS from re-discovering multiple LUNs for tape drive and medium changer. Duplicate device nodes for Ultrium tape drive and medium changer are being created. The Ultrium tape drive is a multi-LUN SCSI target. It presents a LUN for the tape drive and a 2nd LUN for the medium changer. Our controller FW lists both LUNs in the RPL results. As a result, the smartpqi driver exposes both devices to the OS. Then the OS does its normal device discovery via the SCSI REPORT LUNS command, which causes it to re-discover both devices a 2nd time, which results in the duplicate device nodes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
