scsi: ses: don't ask for diagnostic pages repeatedly during probe
We are testing if there is a match with the ses device in a loop by
calling ses_match_to_enclosure(), which will issue scsi receive
diagnostics commands to the ses device for every device on the same
host. On one of our boxes with 840 disks, it takes a long time to load
the driver:
[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses
real 40m48.247s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.196s
With the patch:
[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses
real 0m17.915s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m0.053s
Note that we still need to refresh page 10 when we see a new disk to
create the link.
