17 Usually, dev represents some component in the HBA system (either the
18 HBA itself or a device remote across the HBA bus). This routine is
19 simply a trigger point to see if any set of transport classes wishes to
20 associate with the added device. This allocates storage for the class
21 device and initialises it, but does not yet add it to the system or add
22 attributes to it (you do this with transport_add_device). If you have
23 no need for a separate setup and add operations, use
24 transport_register_device (see transport_class.h).
