You wouldn't have to report a phony device, just report the adapter itself.
Every adapter is also a device on the actual bus, so just report a processor
device inquiry with the adapter's SCSI id (you can even supply reasonable
parameters for vendor and model). Because it is a processor, nothing other
than sg will bind anyway. This seems like a reasonable convention for drivers
like yours and requires no modifications to the current SCSI subsystem.
