I've implemented the possibility to install single devices when I wrote 
the /proc/scsi stuff.

Cat a "singledevice a/b/c/d" to /proc/scsi/scsi.

a == host_no
b == channel
c == id
d == lun

The feature is not really tested and the possibility to remove devices is 
missing completely at the moment.

If you volunteer to test it we can get this working properly and also add 
the possibility to remove devices.
