sd_revalidate_disk can be called before the gendisk exists so I can't
register the profile from there.  At one point I tried shuffling
add_disk and revalidate in sd_probe but that caused problems with
sysfs.

I haven't tried reordering since the SCSI sysfs revamp.  I'll try that
out so just drop the patch for now.  It's mostly cosmetic anyway.
