On physical scsi controllers the scsi id of the controller is usually 7
because the highest number on the narrow scsi bus wins arbitration (even
for a wide scsi bus this is still the case). Having the controller at 0
is unusual so it has caused some confusion.  I guess the smart thing to
do would be to determine the scsi bus controller id somehow and just
skip enumerating that.
