  Dear Erik and Leonard,

  I apologize for my previous message - you both were absolutely right and I
  was absolutely wrong. Your idea works fine - I just tested it.

  Originally, I thought you were suggesting to remove the whole decrement
  statement, not just the conditional if().

The *only* part that I suggested for removal was the !scsi_loadable_module_flag
test in that if.  The remaining claue should be left in.
