There's a small bug in SCSI drive hotplug where QEMU is not assigning
unique block device names when you leave the name unspecified
$ /home/berrange/usr/qemu-0.12/bin/qemu -vnc :1 -monitor stdio -device lsi
QEMU 0.11.91 monitor - type 'help' for more information

Notice they are all 'scsi0-hd0', instead of scsi0-hd1, scsi0-hd2, etc
(Ignore the fact that i attached the same underlying file many times :-)
